The question is a bit ambigiuos.I understood that you want to open doc(MS-WORD) file using java program.Am I Right?

Anyhow if u want to open non-java application,You can use class java.lang.Runtime class.

The following java program opens a word file named 'OAFAQs.doc'.

import java.io.*;

public class Doc
{
 public static void main(String[] str)throws IOException
 {
  Runtime rt = Runtime.getRuntime();
  Process p = rt.exec("C:\\Program Files\\Microsoft Office\\OFFICE11\\WINWORD.exe   OAFAQs.doc");
 }
}

Here the "C:\\Program Files\\Microsoft Office\\OFFICE11\\WINWORD.exe" is the executable file for MS-WORD.

There are two kinds of Javadoc comments: class-level comments, and member-level comments. Class-level comments provide the description of the classes, and member-level comments describe the purposes of the members. Both types of comments start with /** and end with */.

• @author: Describes the author of the document. Used in class-level comments
• @param: Describes a parameter of a method or constructor.
• @return: Describes the return type of a method.
• @throws: Describes an exception a method may throw.
• @exception: Describes an exception.

Here is the correct code for this. Save anywhere your document file it search and open.

import java.io.*;
public class Example {

    public static void main (String[] args) throws IOException
        {
            Runtime rt=Runtime.getRuntime();
   
             rt.exec( "C:Program FilesMicrosoft OfficeOFFICE14WINWORD.exe notes.doc" );  
   
        }
}
