Word cannot start the convertor mswrd632

[birdinmich]

A little background -- I've automated a few processes with our mainframe, and have a program that ftp's reports and creates *.doc files. This has been working very well for the past few years, just recently started receiving the above error. After some research, it looks like a security patch from MS is the culprit.

However, the steps to fix it don't apply--since it requires modifying the registry to allow WordPad to open the files. I'm basically using MS Word 2007 to open the *.doc file, not WordPad. It's worked great up until that security update.

Anyone have any suggestions?

Thanks in advance
