How do I get rid of .doc extensions?

How do I get rid of .doc extensions so that I do not have to retype in a name
of a file without having to worry about that extension name?

Go into My Computer
Select Tools > Folder Options > View tab

Thanks Tony, but it did not get rid of the ".doc" name for every file I have.
I know that I can get rid of the "name" of the extension, but that advice did
not work. The only question is ...you stated "under the advanced settings ...
I did not find that group, but I did uncheck the "hide extension" as you
recommended. Those suckers are still there!

Any other suggestions?

Thansk.
