I recently bought a computer with Vista and the new 2007 microsoft word, and
when i try to open older files i have in my email that were created on XP in
the 2003 version of word, they won't open. Instead it will open the microsoft
window and then freeze up and show that the program is not responding. In the
end it never opens my file. I've been experiencing this alot lately. Sorry if
this was asked before, I looked through past questions and couldn't find
anything helpful.


have you tried if saving the files (anywhere on your harddisk, might be
the desktop), and then opening them from there (or opening Word and use
the open file dialog to get to the file) makes any difference?
