OK this works Using for mouse-2, thanks a lot:

However it seems that gnus does not
distinguish between view internally and externally, in the mailcap file
there is also only *ONE* entry concerning msword doc. How can I have
an internal and a (different) external viewer

Or is the only way to display it interactively then.
