Well, I found the executable for Microsoft Office Word and I linked to it as the Word Processor in Option 11.1. If I click Launch from there, the program opens as expected. However, if I go to an individual's media center and click on a docx item there, I still get wordpad. I even tried shutting down Legacy and restarting. And also attaching a different docx document. Still keeps opening up with wordpad. Unless there's something I'm missing, it seems there is a bug here.

On mine the entries are blank which calls up the default programs. When I tested it, a docx came up in wordpad which said it didn't support all the functionality of a docx file. On first attempt, I'm having trouble finding the exe file for msword to put into Legacy option 11.1 or for where to tell windows to use msword instead of wordpad as the default word processor. Windows is already set where docx opens in msword if I open a file of that type from the windows file explorer.

Upon closer inspection these these *unsupported file format* are files that were created as a .docx or .doc format from WORD. These are primarily obituary documents copied/pasted from on-line, or other sources. These files were also attached to individual in Legacy 7.5 and caused no problem, i.e. they could be opened without a problem. I've found nothing concerning WORD documents in Legacy 8 User's Guide.
