You could also change the start up directory when you call winword from the
Program Manager.  From the Program Manager select "FILE PROPERTIES..."
and change the path in the "COMMAND LINE:" parameter to the path to your 
document directory.  In your case, for the "COMMAND LINE:" parameter, you would 
put "C:\WINWORD\DOC\WINWORD.EXE".  This will tell the Program Manager to go to
your DOC directory and then start WINWORD.  You must, however, have a path to
"C:\WINWORD" in your AUTOEXEC.BAT, which I would guess you already have since
you appear to be starting WINWORD from your C:\WINDOWS directory.
