If you are in Word, you can go to File > Recent and open up your document from there. Otherwise, you can go to File > Open to locate your file. The My Documents folder on the desktop may have the file, but may not. For me, I use the Recent or Open to the drive and folder where it is located.

Using any software that support's .doc format. Popular choices are Microsoft's own Office or the free alternative Open Office, based on MS's Office 2003.
