I was trying to convert a .doc document using several converters but didn't get
the result I had hoped for. Then, to my horror, I found out that the Word 5.1a
application had turned into a 966k document!  I can't open any of my word
documennts either as the finder says it can not find the application Microsoft
Word to open the document... What happened? I am baffled...   Can I get the
application back??
