R-click create new Word doc (not docx)

Hello.

Genuinely nice try -- as far as it goes. I don't know if what is you
are suggesting is available on my machine, but I sure can't find it --
and I don't have the time to look for it now. The flip side is that I
do know that there is a work-around for it, which is no doubt available
on all WinVista machines. I open a new (blank) document and let it load
as a *.docx. When the blank screen comes up, I immediately save it as a
*.doc (MSWord97/2003) document. I say "immediately" because I have had
problems with MSWord2002 locking up and crashing if I don't.

I hope this helps.
