| | How do I change my default document program? When I try to open an emailed document, Vista uses Wordpad as the default. How can I change this to MS Word 2003, which I have installed? |

| | Re: How do I change my default document program? What happens when you try to open a saved .doc file? If it doesn't open in Word, right-click on the file, choose Open With, then select Word from the list of programs. You should only have to do this once. -- Gary VanderMolen, MS-MVP (WLMail) "Lewis" <Lewis@xxxxxx> wrote in message news  44003A4-87B8-44DB-8C50-0867F7147B81@xxxxxxQuote: > When I try to open an emailed document, Vista uses Wordpad as the default. > How can I change this to MS Word 2003, which I have installed? |
