Mark;
The Office documents should open fine with Office 2007.
Make sure the documents are associated with the appropriate Office
2007 component (Word, Excel, Publisher etc).

If you still have problems, as in an Office newsgroup:

Please help us to help you. What does "not able to access" mean? Is it
*all* documents, or just doc files? xls files? pps files? etc. Exactly
how is she trying to do this? Does it fail both when double-clicking
the document and when using file | open from within the app? What
happens when she tries? If she gets an error message, please quote it
verbatim.
