Netscape trying to "view" Word documents

[Tim Tripp]

Greetings, Gentlefolk

We're setting up an Intranet, running off of a 486 running Linux and NCSA 
HTTPd.  Some of the documents contain links to forms or other documents 
in Word format.  When you click on the link in Netscape (1.1), it tries to 
view the document instead of prompting the user, or launching Word.  Now, 
I've got Word configured in my helper applications, to launch when 
Netscape hits files with the ".doc" extension.  I've tried changin that to 
"prompt user", but no change in what it does. 

I'm probably missing something totally obvious, but I've got to give a demo 
this week, and I'm beginning to panic!

Can anybody out there see the obvious?
