Cannot open micrsoft word documents

[stat123]

Hello,

Here is the problem:

I just installed the newest version of microsfot word; I cannot open microsoft word documents that were created with in older version of microsoft, and that have very big titles (over 250 characters). When I double click the document, nothing happens. Same story if I try to delete or rename. All the other files with short titles open up fine.

Any clues?

This is not a fix, but may be a workaround. Try going into Windows Explorer and renaming the files with a shorter name, then try to open them.

If anyone calls and says "I know a little something about computers" just tell them to reformat it.
