my documents open in WordPad, not their native program

When opening some of my documents, from a desktop shortcut, or "open recent
documents", the document opens in WordPad, regardless of whether they were
created with Publisher, Word, etc. Everything is fine if I open the doc
through the native program, however.

I am running XP Home SP2 and Outlook 2003 Small Business Edition.

Look at the properties of the documents, see what opens them. Right-click any Office
file, properties, opens with. If the correct application isn't used, click change.
