"quiet" install of Word 2003

[Will]

Word Viewer didn't solve the issue. I installed Word Viewer and it correctly
opens Word documents. But, it does not open them if you attempt to open the
Word document that is stored within Application X. However, if Word Viewer
is already open then the Word document opens when clicked via Application X.
So it appears there is nothing wrong with the file type association on the
server - rather the problem must be something funky in the way Application X
handles the association. Do you have any other ideas? Thanks.

At this point I'm not sure what to suggest because I don't know how
Application X is pulling the data out of the database for presentation. By
this I mean, is Application X reading the binary blob in database > writing
it to a temp file on the system > display to user, embed/view the word
document directly within its interface, or my original understanding that
application x just gave a URL (http:/file to wherever the document was
being stored.
