Word attachments in my outlook 2003 (using Vista Ultimate) opens in wordpad.
It is text. So, I can't read the attachment. When I went in to do "detect and repair" in Word 2003, I lost all my old emails. The outlook it setup under this detect and repair is blank, does not open word documents in word. I went into control panel, I set up the default for *.doc as Word. Now, the message comes up as %1 is not a valid win32 application. How do I solve this tricky problem? |

If you save the DOC file to your hard drive and double click on it, does it
open in Word? "Accept Creditcards on website" . com wrote in message ... Word attachments in my outlook 2003 (using Vista Ultimate) opens in wordpad. It is text. So, I can't read the attachment.

![]() Yes. This is the only way I am able to open attachment. It is very cumbersome. It used to launch Word automatically. Also where did all my old emails go after the 'detect and repair' episode?

I am able to get the "old" files back. But the problem of *.doc files not
opening in Word still remains. Can you please help me with that? "Brian Tillman" wrote: Accept Creditcards on website . com wrote: It is very cumbersome. It used to launch Word automatically.
