this symantec patch? (that is, not being able to open .doc files from
explorer with spaces in the path?)

I've been living with this problem for at least 6 months and now I'm
starting to doubt that it was ever a problem with Word. I'm almost
certain it was. I am able to open any Word file in any location. Other
files (*.pdf, *.txt, *.html, etc) never had a problem. Still no love
for excel, I assumed the problem was with the Office install.

I did do a repair of Office a couple weeks ago, which took about 30
minutes. It didn't help. Thanks for your help. Is it worth doing a
complete uninstall and reinstall? I don't know how helpful that would
be since some file would remain in place (like my Outlook *.pst files)
and I assume some registry entries.
