Default compatibility problem Word for PC and Word 2004 for Mac

I received a file (by e-mail) written in Czech language and I can open this
with my PC (Word 2000)
If I copy this file to my Mac (Powerbook G4) and open the file with Word
2004 for Mac, all the special characters are wrong.
I also have the same problem with other languages like Russian, Hungarian, ...
How can I solve this problem so I can read the files with my Mac? Are there
any language settings I have to change or is it something else?

Tx for any help on this one

Ah, you should go ask some Mac users. Word 2004 should be able to handle
this.

See here for Google/Entourage gateway to newsgroups for MacWord,
MacExcel, and other MS programs for the Mac:
