Loading MSWord docs automatically?




Hi - I'm running Executor/NEXTSTEP 1.30e on Motorola hardware with NS3.1.  I
have Microsoft Word "installed" (by copying the whole MS Word Stuff folder
from a mac via GatorShare AppleShare/NFS magic)  in ExecutorVolume/Word, and
the app has been renamed (with HFS_XFER) to "Microsoft Word.appl".  Renaming
Word apps to "Brochure.msw" for example, gives the proper "executor word
document" icon.  However, double clicking the word document icon launches
executor and word, but word just loads an empty document.  What am I doing
wrong?  Also, quitting word pops up an alert "can save settings".  Is this
related?  Do I have a permissions problem?  Is this a FAQ or RTFM?

Thanks,
Mike Bray
