Cannot launch Office Winword 2007 Beta via Automation

[Rosh K. Mathews]

Hi there,

I have installed the Office 2007 beta version. Instead of upgrading from the
existing Office 2003, i installed Office 2007 as an additional version.

I tried to automate Ofiice Word 2007 beta. but WinWord 2003 is getting
launched instead.

If i double click on a doc file, WINWORD2003 is getting launched instead of
WINWORD 2007 beta.. but it is ok if i open a ppt file or excel file.

Is this as per design, or is it a bug which will get fixed in a future
release.

Can i invoke an instance of my old Office WinWord... i.e. Office 11 instead
of Office 12? If yes, how?

Any advices will be most welcome..

Thanks in advance,
Rosh K. Mathews.
