How to Open Doc. and Docx. attachments with Word 2013 from Firefox
I just got a new laptop and installed Office 2013. However, when I try to open an attachment from my email or a document from the web, the box comes up that says "What should Firefox do with this file?" I can save the file fine, but when I click "Browse" next to "Open with", Microsoft Word is nowhere to be found. It would be nice to get the document to automatically open in Word. I am not sure if this is the correct place to ask this question, but any help would be appreciated.

Which application opens the file if you double-click such a file in Windows Explorer?
If the default program is Word then Firefox should offer that application as the default.
In the case of an attachment then it may not be likely that the file is send with the correct MIME type for a doc or docx file, but possibly a generic type like "application/octet-stream" that will make Firefox want to save the file.

Once I chose Microsoft Word in Internet Explorer the option became available in Firefox. Thanks for your help!
