Andrew,If you have an older version of Office (say, 2000, 2003, XP), you could install the Microsoft Office Compatibility Pack for Word, Excel and PowerPoint. This would let your old Office applications handle the new formats, such as docx.
You can download the compatibility pack at the link below. http://www.microsoft.com/download/en/details.aspx?id=3 Vince.----- Original Message ----- From: "Barbara Wilson" <barkingbabs@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
