Well, after whining a little about wanting MacWrite documents to launch
MS-Word, et. al.  I did something about it.  MacWrite launcher is a little
program that pretends it's MacWrite, and then turns around and Chains to
the program who's name is in resource string #128.  The default is
'ms word'.

See the posting in comp.binaries.mac for more details (source too!).
