I have an issue that My EPDM can't work with .Doc Word documents but can for .Docx. Am I missing an install setting?
What really bugs me is that I do not have the standard "check in" and "check out" commands avaiable.

That .doc file seems to be a lighter color. Is it a local file? If so, it must be added to the vault first.
What Jeff said. Select the 'Add to file vault' menu item shown in your pic.
Assuming that adding it to the vault didn't solve your problem, and the issue is in fact that it cannot handle .doc files, (which I will note here is odd because .doc which ended with Windows 2003, is still the format in majority use) if you have any Microsoft Office after 2003, you can convert it to a docx by opening it in Word and doing a Save As as a Word 2007 file.

Yes the "Add to File Vault" worked. But why did I need to use that method? It was saved to that folder inside the Vault View. It was created in the folder in the Vault View.
Ah. I think when I was creating a File Card I told it to be associated with "doc, docx" and not "doc; docx". Now in the files type there is a file type "doc, docx" as well as "doc" and "docx". Now I am not seeing any method to eliminate the "doc, docx" file type. Hmm.... Nope that could not be it (but I still want to eliminate the erant file type". I have a second play vault with the same issue and it does not have that erant file type.
So why do .docx automatically get prepaired for the vaults yet .doc do not? (At least in my case)
Is .docx listed in the user/group's "Add Files" list?
Where did you get that dialogue?
In the admin-tool, expand the User node and right click a user, click "Settings"

Yes that worked. thanks all.
This can also be found for groups too. (I always recommend settings on a group level rather than a user level.)
