| | Opening Word document attachments When trying to open standard Word documents in Windows Mail I am getting a message ' this file does not have a program associated with it for performing this action. Create an assocition in Set Associations Control Panel'. Is this a Windows Vista program bug because I could always open such documents in Outlook Express on Windows XP. If not, how do I fix it? p.s. the association in the control panel for .doc to Word looks fine. |
