Default Posted Word07 file changes to zip file

As I understand it, a .docx file *is* a .zip file. If you just change the
file extension, you should be able to open it normally.

It could be something that the host site does for files over a certain
size. Did you ask them?

I posted a very large file saved as a *.docx file in Word 2007. When the
hyperlink to download, open/save the file is clicked, the file shows up
as a
*.zip file and cannot be opened. The File Download window has this
message:
Do you want to open or save this file? Name: WSR_Speech_Module.zip; Type:
Compressed (zipped) Folders, 5.78MB.

You can find the file at

under the link

advance.
