After I startup Word then I select File - Open select the document to open. Click OK. Document comes up but it's all messed up.

If I just go to explorer and double-click on the document it launchs Word and then it looks perfect.

What would be the difference in why it looks fine one way but not the other?

The file may be in a format Word does not recognize. How was the file saved? Was it a web page you attempted to somehow convert?

Is it an .htm file your trying to view with Word?
