Default Office 2007 documents come zipped in an email to me


In addition to having the organization do as Jay suggests, you should be
able to work around the problem by changing the file extension from .zip to
..docx and then use FileOpen.

Hope this helps.

I have Office 2007 and don't have problems opening Office 2007 documents,
except for when they are emailed to me from a specific organization. From
all users on this organization's system, the documents come to me in a
zipped
folder, and when I extract all the files, there is no actual document to
open. It only contains more folders labelled "docProps", "_rels", and
"word". These folders contains other folders and files, none of which are
the actual document. Anyone else ever encounter this?
