Re: Problems opening excel and word
Perhaps you could post some of the error messages?
Let's try to guess. See in file types (Control Panel / Folder Options / File types) if the extension DOC and XLS are mapped to the correct program. Does the icon of the file looks like the correct program?

Re: Problems opening excel and word
seems like the programm path is not defined properly.
Check if the mapped path is correct.

>how do I know if the programs are mapped correctly?
As Jorge mentioned go to the File Types tab. Look at DOC and XLS extensions and see what's there. Select one and click on Advanced.
Select open and click on Edit. Under application you should see something like:
"C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\OFFICE11\WINWORD.EXE" /n /dde
Use DDE is selected. DDE message:
[REM _DDE_Direct][FileOpen("%1")]
Application: WinWord

Re: Problems opening excel and word
Do you have an icon of word at your desktop?
Click it with your right mouse button and check the path.
