Using Word 2007 receptients can't open the attachments I send
Word 2007 has a new file format (.docx extension) that older versions of
Word cannot open without an update. As Word 2007 is currently still beta, the converters for older versions are also still beta and it is not recommendable to have them installed on all the machines of your recipients. You should save your documents in the Word 97-2003 format. Use the Office button, Save As to do that. If you want your documents to be by default saved in that format, go into Office Button, Word Options, Save. Under Save files in this format, select Word 97-2003 Document (*.doc) P.S.: Next time you have a problem, please post more than a subject line. An actual description does help.
