Office X start

[egiraffe]

Hello,

Everytime I click on an Office document (word, excel, powerpoint) I
get an error 10660. But if I just start the program (click on word) it
starts up. Anyone know how to fix this?

Thanks

Try this:

Do a Get Info (cmd-I) on a Word document. Set it to Open With Word 2004
and click Change All.

Repeat for other programs.

Sounds like it doesn't know which application to use to open the files--the
OS may have gotten confused, perhaps if you updated Office recently?

Hi Daiya,

I just tried that, but it keeps reverting to Word 11.0. I just got a
new computer and it had Word 11.0 Test Drive on it. I trashed that
since I have Word 10.0, but it still won't open automatically. I tried
to change it in excel and powerpoint as well, but it keeps reverting
back to 11.0. Any other ideas?
