    MS WORD

    I have proceeded with your suggestion of selecting the word document saved in a path and tried to select it for right clicking but miserably failed. It has not allowed me to select the word document first and windows explorer hanged circling for sometime
    and came out of explorer itself. This issue may be something different I feel. Other MS docs like excel, notepad etc are opening correctly when I double click as usual and this word document only giving problem.

    Please suggest some other workable solution.

    Thanks,

    Balakrishnan.

    Retrieving all text from DOC files that are NOT MS Word

    Could these be really old Word files? Really old .doc files from Word for DOS can't be open in current versions of Word. As a test I created files in a couple old versions of Word for DOS. Here is what happened when I tried to open them with Word 2019. Word3-5DOS.doc

    I then went to this web site and converted these files to Word3-5DOS.docx and Word6DOS.docx. Word 2019 was then able to open the converted files. FreeConvert DOC to WORD Converter - FreeConvert.com
