Error in opening Microsoft Word through Terminal I haven't been able to open Microsoft Word through Terminal.
I tried:

open -a Microsoft\Word


But I get this in return: 

Unable to find application named 'MicrosoftWord'


How can I open Microsoft Word (I see it in Applications so I know it's installed)?
You are missing a space, it should be:

open -a Microsoft\ Word


Or:

open -a "Microsoft Word"


Program names that contain spaces need to be escaped with a \ backslash or use " quotes around the name, but not both.
