DOCX is a new document format pertaining to Word 2007. It is not compatible
with Word 2003, though Word 2003 users can, should they so wish, download
and install a conversion pack.
If you want to ensure that those users with Word 2003 and earlier can open
documents you create, then save them as Word 97-2003 format. This is not
simply a question of changing the extension.
