Summary: Don't have MacWrite, double-click MacWrite docs, start Word


Frequently, I get documents created in MacWrite.  They show the MacWrite 
document icon, and they have a creator of MACA.  The trouble is, I don't
have MacWrite.  I know that I can Open... MacWrite files once I'm in Word,
but is there a way to change Word so that it is opened when I double-click
a MacWrite file?

The file type on these should be enough to tell Word that it is a MacWrite
file, right???

Respond directly to me, I'll summarize if anyone wants....
