Word attachments in Windows Mail

by karen . Updated 17 years, 10 months ago

All of a sudden, word documents attached in my Windows Mail emails try opening up in Word 2007 instead of the usual Word 2003.

I have Word 2007 only as an expired trial version, and the word I am using is the good old 2003. When opening the attachments, the computer starts installing Word 2007, and I have to cancel that operation and can only open up the attachments from within my word 2003.

At the same time I have had problems with merging a document with an address list which suddenly the computer can no longer find.

Apparently something has happened so that word 2003 is no longer my primary word program.

If I try and repair the word 2003 as described under “Help”, I will probably need to input my username and password when starting the office pack up again, where do I find them? Are they on my office 2003 installation CD?
