I've dealt with multiple Word versions on computers (sometimes my own) for
almost 7 years, and they have all behaved this way: The last version run is
the one that will start after double clicking a .doc file. So to get your
double clicks to start W2003, first double click the W2003 program name.
Even after it is closed (if you have not started W2007), double clicking a
file name will start W2003. Starting W2007 will reverse this.
