I too found it *very* annoying not to be able to double-click on an
old-style MW doc and have MWII come up.

I came across a freeware utility which lets you change its creator at
will. More importantly, you can tell it to launch another app when it
itself is launched.

I have its creator set to be that of old MW and configured to launch
MWII. It will also pass the document that was double-clicked on to
MWII so that the doc is converted to MWII format when MWII launches.

If you would like a copy of the utility, e-mail me.
