I have followed your discussion on SLE. I have exactly the same problem but reinstallation of the RPM doesn't fix it. When I try to open a .doc file with kword 1.1beta3 I receive a messagebox saying that there is no filter for application x-doc. I did associate application/x-doc with kword in the konqueror list of mime types, but it won't open them.
I am using kde 2.2 beta from ftp.kde.org on suse 7.2.
Can you think of something else that you might have done that restored the functionality?
Many thanks, Henry Harpending
Your problem is exactly the one I had, but I really do not know what else could have changed that. BTW I have found out that kword just crashes now if I try a Word 6.0 document, but it has no problem if I got Office97 doc files. Is this normal? Tazio
