I am having a problem with office 2007 on Vista.
When I use windows explorer and doubleclick on an existing .doc file, word
2007 opens but then displays an error message stating that "windows cannot
find 'c:\what I just clicked.doc' Make sure you typed the name correctly and
then try again"
I get the same result with excel. I have tried various remedies.
1. reinstall office 2007 (twice)
2. run sfc /scannow (multiple times)
3. reset the file association in control panel / programs
With word already open, I can doubleclick and get the file to display.
With excel already open, I still get the error message.
Of course, with word already open, file/open and then browsing to the same
existing file works perfectly.
I've run windows update and everything reports up to date.
Environment is Vista Ultimate installed from scratch (not an upgrade) on a
toshiba p4 laptop with 2GB ram.
