[QUOTE="MacInWin, post: 1893969, member: 396914"] I didn't read the entire thread to see if you had already provided this, but what is the extent on the files? (Extent is the part after the ".", so .doc, .docx, etc.) I ask because being greyed out in Word indicates that the files are not associated with Word for some reason. Word will grey out files with extents that don't match what it knows it can open. Given your problem, I'm beginning to think they are not .doc files, but something else. [/QUOTE]
