Default opening word doc from excel 2000 and 2003 differences

Hi
we have an Excel sheet that, amongst other things, calls some word docs
by hyperlinks. When the user selects a word doc, it opens OK but Excel
minimises, the (dumb) users think Excel has closed and try to open the
spreadsheet again. All of this is using Office 2000 Pro. Other file
types (pdf, tif etc) do not cause the same problem.

It seems that in Office 2003 this does not happen. We are not going to
Office 2003 just yet so does anyone know a way around this behaviour?

Thanks

Colin
