Hi Julie

You may need to re-register the file associations.

To do that, do Start > Run. In the box type
winword /r
and click OK.

Nothing will appear to happen, but Word will have re-registered itself as
the program in charge of .doc files. Then try again, and see if it makes a
difference.

Hope this helps.

Well, Word opens with the tool bar the darker blue selected, yet the file
won't open until I look for it again and open it in Word.
