    MODS, feel free to move post. I just don't know where else to put it.


    I'm having a serious problem with saving any documents composed in MS Word. When I save as a Word doc, it will randomly save into Wordpad instead. I haven't a clue why. If I compose something in Word, I don't want it saved in Wordpad, cause it doesn't come out right. WTF, this is driving me nuts.

    I'm running Word 2003/winXP pro serv pac 2

    Any hints?

    Thanks Nkhoi. Wordpad didn't even come up in those doc extentions. Is there a way to disable Wordpad?

    if you didn't find DOC extension , add it in, just click new button , type in DOC then associate it with word, no need to disable word pad.
