Files can be opened manually. Any idea why? I tried uninstalling and then reinstalling Office.

It's really embarrasing when the user provides the solution: go to <Tools><Options> General tab and make sure that "Ignore Other Applications" is not checked.

LOL! Welcome to the forum!

I dunno... I frequently answer my own question after I ask someone. I figure we both learn something. ;)
