Can't open documents from Windows Explorer unless Word already ope

A

Amanda Cannon

I suddenly lost the ability to double-click a document to open it. It opens
Word, w/ no document, not even a blank one. No error codes given, and
nothing in system or application logs.

If word is open, it works fine. If I open from within Word, fine. Not
Office wide, because Excel works fine w/ a double-click.

I've tried Repair, Uninstall/Reinstall, and re-registering (winword.exe /r)
with no change in results.

Running Windows XP SP2 and Office 2003, small peer-to-peer network (no one
else has problem), w/ all patches.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
