Set Default Editors with Plugin_Customization.ini [message #319747]

I'm trying to setup the editors associated with doc types using the
plugin_customization.ini file. I've added these lines:
org.eclipse.ui/defaultEdtiors=*.doc:"Microsoft Word Document"
org.eclipse.ui.workbench/defaultEditors=*.doc:"Microsoft Word Document"
to the file. But it doesn't work, doc files simply open in a Word instance
within Eclipse. I found this thread >
http://dev.eclipse.org/newslists/news.eclipse.newcomer/msg11 731.html. But
it didn't provided any automatic solutions (versus manually selecting the
editor). Any ideas?
I've tried to use the startup parameter -pluginCustomization as mentioned
here >
http://www.eclipse.org/eclipse/platform-core/documents/user_ settings/plugin_customization.html.
Thanks in advance,
Derry

Fixing the typo "org.eclipse.ui/defaultEdtiors=*.doc:"Microsoft Word
Document"" did not work either (Edtiors to Editors).
