I would say that too if I couldn't the same doc. She recieves the doc, it
fails to open, she forwards it to me and I send it to her as a txt and then
she can open it.. Just plain strange

Sometimes docs are damaged in transit. Zipping them seems to offer some

She has actually done both, tried to open directly and saved to her
desktop
to open. The weird things she can get 3 docs in an email and be able to
open
2 but not the 3rd.

Is she trying to open the docs directly from the email? This is never a
good
idea. She should save the doc to a document folder, then start Word and
open
it from the folder.

Hi folks,
I have a user who on occassion is unable to open Word documents sent
to
her.
She is running the same version and itteration of Word as I am and
all
our
settings are the same. I have no problem opening the docs.
The last one I had to paste as straight text into email to get it to
her.
Since these are confidential docs, it is not a good solution. Anyone
have
any
ideas?
Thanks
