Word 2002 in Vista Home Premium

[David Cook]

I have installed Works Suite 2006 in my Vista Home Premium computer.
Everything works fine apart from Word 2002. I am unable to open Word by
clicking on document files. If I double click on a document file in Explorer
nothing happens. If I right click and select Open With, and then click on
wordicon, nothing happens. I am also unable to launch Word from the Works
Suite program launcher. I can open Word, no problem, and it appears to work
fine, but to edit a document I have to search for it from within Word, which
is often inconvient. I have un-installed the suite, and re-installed it, but
the problem still persists. Is there a fix for this issue?

I believe Works Suite 2006 is compatible with WinXP/Win2k & Win98 - not
Vista
Since the product is out of support there will be no fix.
You could try posting to the Works group, maybe someone there has a
workaround.
Its not primarily a Vista issue

Why ask this again when you've received several replies already to the
first time you asked it??
