Just a little update .....After quite a lot of googling I found this ...<<Open a blank Word document, go to File > Options> Trust Center > Trust Center Settings > Protected View, then uncheck Enabled Protected View for Outlook Attachments.>>I sent it to 'bro' who has just replied ...
<<Good morning. Now that I’ve unticked the box “enable protected view” I can open Word documents. Many thanks>>

There is still a root problem with something but as long as all doc are totally trusted it will work.
