Hello, The Bat Users!

m> I prefer to use WordView rather than Word for viewing word
m> processor attachments, to avoid execution of potentially  malicious
m> macro code.

m> In spite of *.doc files being associated with WordView, The Bat! 
m> insists on opening MS Word to view these files when attachments 
m> are double-clicked.

Please, export the following parts of your registry and send the
contents here so we can diagnose the problem (run regedit.exe, find
the key you want to export, then use Registry|Export menu item):

HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\.doc


You'll get a file like this:

--------------------
REGEDIT4

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\.doc]
@="Word.Document.8"
"Content Type"="application/msword"
--------------------

Now, export the following parts, too (substitute the strings you get
in above file for the strings "Word.Document.8" and
"application/msword" in the example below):

HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Word.Document.8
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\MIME\Database\Content Type\application/msword
