Hello everyone, Is there anyway I can have my computer recognized both HTML and .doc files ? Right now it can only read HTML. My Adobe Reader 8, Power Point and MS Ecel won't take .doc files. -- t-4-2 |

Of course they won't! ..DOC are MS WORD files. ..PDF are Adobe Reader files. ..PPS are Power Point files. ..XLS are Excel files. None of those programs can open files from any other. To view .DOC files: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/891090 Richie Hardwick |

Actually, quite a few programs will work with Word .doc files. These
include OpenOffice.org, along with most other modern word processors. Word Viewer (see Richie Hardwick's reply) will let you read them but not edit them. SteveT |

Also:
1) Microsoft Works – can read and edit .doc files 2) Word Pad – can read .doc files Both programs usually are part of the Vista package. Look in Start Menu All Programs -- oscar ....Right click is your very good friend... "t-4-2" wrote: Hello everyone, Is there anyway I can have my computer recognized both HTML and .doc files ?
