Text Attachments in IE6 - How do you reset the program to view them?

here's the deal, wife uses wordperfect, clicks on an attachment to an email which is a MS Word doc - won't work - can't seem to find the "open with" screen to change from WP to Word or Wordpad

I'm sure this is something simple, but i can't figure it out - TIA

Does it work when she saves it on the HDD and clicks on it on the HDD?
IE should use the same folder options as the Windows Explorer (can be set in Windows Explorer/Tools/Folder Options/File Types under 2000/XP).
