Hello,

I have a computer that will not open office files by double clicking them, or right click open. I have tried it in Win. Explorer, and my computer. Plus i have rebooted.

I CAN, however, open the file by opening word or excel THEN opening the file from the "File-Open" Menu..

Any one have any ideas? thanks!

Sounds like your file associations are missing

I thought about that, but it doesnt come up asking how it should open the file, like it does when it doesnt have an association.. it just sits there.. not opening

thanks again
