Default Saving documents

Open new document. File > Save As



Save As type shows: Word Document (*.doc)

But when I next open the document, it opens in Word Pad, not in Word. ???

Thanks!

...Steve

Hi Steve,

That suggests you have a file associations problem. See: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/918957

Thanks Paul, that did it. Dunno why I didn't think of that sooner...
