Default Reading Office 2007 format in Office 2003

Install the Word Viewer. Those files are they from another version of Office aside
from 2003 or 2007

I have Office 2003 with all available updates. I have also installed the
compatibility pack for the Office 2007 system and all available updates. This is on
a Windows XP Pro SP3 system.

I have two .doc files which were sent to me by email. I believe they are scans of
a printed document. In any case, I am unable to view them with Word 2003. I *can*
view them using WordPad, and they look fine. I can also view them on a different
computer which does not have MS Office, but does have the MS Word Viewer
v1.8313.8221 SP3.

I would like to be able to view these documents in Word 2003. Is this possible,
and if so how do I fix my problem? Thanks!

Sorry for the cross posting. None of these groups seem to be exactly what I want,
but I can't find any that are better.
