Dad wanted to know why every time he opened MS Word, it opened his old document rather than a new blank document. Dad didn't quite grasp that the icon he was clicking on was, in fact, that of his document, or that the small Word symbol in the corner was just a reminder that the document was a Word document. I suppose I could have put a shortcut to Word on his desktop and explained to him how to move his old documents to his My Documents folder to avoid confusion. But what fun would that be?
