101860 2002-11-27 04:54:00 I'm using Mozilla for my email. For some reason it has recently stopped allowing me to open attachments (e.g. Word, Excel, etc). I can save them to my hard drive, but cannot open them directly from email. Any advice (step by step instructions for "dummies" please!) welcome!

Thanks
Anna

Go to Edit/PreferencesNavigator/Helper Applications
If word is there select Edit
If it is not there Click on New
Description of Type: Microsoft Word Document
File Extension: doc
Mime Type: application/msword
Click on Choose, you must now locate the executable file that runs Microsoft Word. More likely than not, this file is named winword.exe
Hilight it and click OK
