Default wordpad

When I try and open an email attachment, with the .doc
file extension, I get an error message, with wordpad at
the top, which says, this program has performed an illegal
operation and will be shut down, in the details, the error
is MSWRD832. I can open the document in quick view only,
but then can't edit it. Please help.
