> Word 97 files sometimes open as "Untitled". 
That's because they're considered as templates in this case, so basically
you're getting a new document based on this template.

> Workaround is to add a .doc extension to the file.
That's not just a workaround, but the right thing to do. There is no way to
distinguish between a Word 97 document and a template, other than by file
extension (AFAIK). So with a wrong extension, the software simply has no clue
on what you're trying to do.

As a general rule, you should give right extensions to files whenever possible,
or you'll get bad surprises in other cases too.
