Eclipse never ceases to amaze me

I’m writing documentation for my compiler due later today, and I double click on it in Eclipse:

Microsoft Word in Eclipse

The Eclipse IDE uses OLE to dynamically include an instance of MS Word in its project space. That is cool… I am impressed!

    How did you do that?

    In my Eclipse it tries to open the Word document with the default editor.
    When I add MS word as an external viewer for type .doc it opens a new instance of Word and does not include the document in the Eclipse wordspace.
