Hello,
You can
1) Remove Microsoft Word installed in the classic mode. This will force your Mac to learn where OS X office is, and run with that.
2) You can place a alias (shortcut) of word on the Dock, and then drag-n-drop your document onto it to launch the OS X version of Word.
3) You can modify the Classic settings so that it asks you if you wish to load Classic. I have mine set to prompt me for confirmation that I want 9 to load.
4) Check out this website: http://mac.excaliburworld.com/foibles.html
It talks and offers a program to fix the Desktop file to correct the problem, and avoid it in the future.
