Re: Microsoft Office 2001 and OSX
I need help to automatically launch Microsoft Word 2001 when double clicking on a word document in OS 9.2 Having installed Office X in OS10.2 and I also still have Office 2001 in 9.2 When I double click on a word document in OS 9.2 I get an error message To Use Microsoft Word your computer must be running Mac OSX 10.1 or later. Is there a patch or something that needs to be done so that my G4 will open a word document in OS 9.2 I used to be able to double click a word document and automatically launch word ... without the error message? BEFORE I INSTALLED OFFICE OS X in 10.2 Once I open word 2001 I can open word documents in 9.2 by double clicking but I get the error message if I haven't first opened Word 2001. You could put an alias to Word 2001 somewhere on the desktop and drag the file to that. Or possibly put an alias to it in your startup items folder. Possibly, reinstalling Office 2001 under 9.2 might also fix the problem (or change the modification date of Word 2001) Is there a fix or is microsoft playing silly buggers? Actually, it's not really Microsoft's fault for once :) It's due to the way the Mac determines which application should be opened.
