I need to open a file with MS word, but I don't have that application.?

I have a file that I need to open called Basketball Bracket 3-20.doc. To open this page I need to use MS Word and I really don't want to spend $15 dollars just to see my bracket. Can I send it to another application called Word Perfect I have, because it has a picture of the bracket on it and the notepad won't process any images even though it gives me the option to upload it. Once I click yes on that option, it just sits, and sits, and sits some more and sits a little more and then sits again.
