Re: How do I open a word document in my email

A/ You need M/Soft Word installed to open M/Soft Word documents

B/ It's Word Processor so there is no relationship to email programmes

C/ You have to buy it - so if you have downloaded it illegally you should
remove it before the policeman comes knocking

Re: How do I open a word document in my email

Do the documents you are trying to open have a .doc extension?
How are you trying to open them, from within Yahoo mail, or do
you save the attachment first, then you double-click on the saved file?
