agreed, sounds like long vs short filenames, look in folder options - filetypes for .doc etc and make sure they read:

"c:\program files\microsoft office\winword.exe" "%1"

the quotes around %1 allow windows to read the long filename
For "Open", the "Application" is

"C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office\WINWORD.EXE" /n

The "DDE Message" is

[REM _DDE_Direct][FileOpen("%1")]

I changed the "Application" as suggested and disabled DDE and things are back to normal.

What have I lost by disabling DDE?

Thanks.
