This should work:
Open My Computer
choose Tools / Folder Options
Wait. . . .
Scroll down the list of 'registered file types'. to Extension: DOC
select that extension
click button [Restore]
Yes I know this puts thing back in M$ Office hands,
but it also gives you the [Advanced] button
under which you CAN reassign it to OOo.
and change the Icon!!

I install OOo on all the computers I sell and instruct the new users to:
1. save in OOo format for internal use
2. save in PDF to send non-editable documents to other people
3. save in M$ Word format to send editable docs to Word users
All of these customers have Windows XP as their OS
The customers therefore end up with a mixture of .sxw, .doc, and
.pdf files in their "My Documents" folder.
The PDF docs have the default Adobe Acrobat Reader icon
The OOo docs have the default OOo icon
The Word docs also have the OOo icon
I followed the M$ WinXP Help instructions to change the workd docs
icon, but the property these instructions referred to was not present
in the dialog box. I owuld like *.doc documents to be ditinguished
from true OOo *.sxw documents by having a different icon.
Does anyone know how to change an OOo icon under Windows XP?
Many thanks, James Elliott
