Some Word 2007 files need to be opened from inside Word

I recently bought CrossOver Linux and installed it on Ubuntu 10.10 64-bit to be able to run Office 2007.
Mostly it works great, but I've noticed some .docx files can not be opened from the file manager by double clicking on them, but they do open if I open them from inside Word. It doesn't seem to be a filename issue at least. I've tried removing spaces, foreign letters etc to see if that would help, but it did nothing. Has anyone else had the same problem? Anyone have a solution?
