Since installing Open Office 4.0 I cannot open .doc files on the fly, used to work before.

I've recently upgraded to Open Office 4.0. Now cannot open .doc attachments from Thunderbird. I can download to disc and open into Open Office Writer with Power Desk or Windows Explorer in the usual way. I've checked tools/options/attachments and it's set to Open Office Writer. I think this is irrelevant, but when I had Open Office 3.0 I had Writer set as a separate program, but I am now using just the master front end. 

Works OK with .pdf or .jpg files.

just delete the entry from the attachments windows and then try and open a doc file. The entry will be recreated using your responses.

I am guessing the existing Writer is not the correct Writer.
