Someone sent me a letter attached in an email. I can't read it. It is a file.docx

What is that? It's all boxes and symbols. I tried Word. Nada.

Anyone care to let me email it and then you copy and paste it back to me. You have to have the newest MS Word.

I 2nd the motion. I had one of the 07 word docs emailed to me a few weeks ago. and found the software mentioned above for my Word 2000. Works great. Just click on the newer doc?? and Word 2000 reads it.

Ps. If you are upgrading to 2007 remember churches can get 2007 upgrade office license for $79...

Did you try the link I emailed you? There's a little conversion program free online, and I took your email and ran it through. Problem was, on my laptop at home, I don't even have Word, I have Open Office. So, when I got the email back that it had converted over to the .doc format, it wouldn't open. Let me know if you got it and the result, and if you need it, I'll run it from my office where I have Word.

It wouldn't open for me either. *sigh*
