I can't open doc files on my computer. I can save them into Documents, then I have to send them to my memory stick which I then plug into my laptop to view!

All the communications that I get from work are in doc files so this is a pain!!

.doc files are usually created by MS Office using Word.

If all you need to do is view them but not edit them then THIS should do the trick.

Thanks. It worked. I can now open all those documents and find out what they actually were! :thumbsup:
