Microsoft Word Error: "This file could not be found."
Office 2007, updated with all Service Packs and patches. All other file extensions open fine with exception of ".doc". When opening a .doc file, (for example, "sample.doc"), I get error message that states "The command cannot be performed because a dialog box is open." Click OK, and dialog box behind it states "The file could not be found. (C:\Documents.doc)". Click OK and new box says: "This file could not be found. (C:\Documents and Settings\...\and.doc)". Click OK and new box says: "The directory name is not valid. (C:\Documents and Settings\...\sample.doc)."

I'm providing a grade of "B" simply because the posted solutions were not the ultimate cure. However, the solutions were helpful and could be to others.

So sorry .... I meant to add to this but it didn't post.
Thank you both for your thoughts. I did something I should have done before posting this issue to Expert's Exchange, and it solved the problem. I ran Microsoft Office Diagnostics (which found one error in my installation files) and it cured the issue immediately.
Thanks again!
