Answer» My grandson sent me a letter on Word.docx. My 2003 word is only Word.doc. Is there a way to open his document "x" without buying Word.docx? THANKS Quote Is there a way to open his document? YES. You need to install the Microsoft Office Compatibility Pack. http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/en/details.aspx?FamilyId=941B3470-3AE9-4AEE-8F43-C6BB74CD1466&displaylang=en I FOLLOWED the instructions but it is not showing up in my Control Panel listing. I'm waiting for another letter to TEST this on. Thanks You can try the word 2007 viewer http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/en/details.aspx?familyid=3657ce88-7cfa-457a-9aec-f4f827f20cac&displaylang=en or convert .docx to .doc http://www.doc.investintech.com/ Quote from: micromos on June 04, 2011, 12:27:36 PM I followed the instructions but it is not showing up in my Control Panel listing. I'm waiting for another letter to test this on. Thanks Why another letter? I thought you were TRYING to open the file sent in a attachment you received? Quote from: BC_Programmer on June 05, 2011, 03:25:35 PM Why another letter? I thought you were trying to open the file sent in a attachment you received? I was wondering that.

It just allows you to open the document in Word or Excel depending on type. Open Office will handle later Word docx files... |
