Hi,
I am trying to upload my resume to a recruitment agency website and when I try to do it it comes up with an error that says "the file type you are uploading to ......must be a doc extension. Please click on browse again and select another file with the .doc extension". I have saved the file as a word document. The resume was originally sent by email, and I then saved it in word. Could this have something to do with it?Can anybody help me? Thanks! ![]() -- v |

Let me guess? You are using Word 2007 - which saves documents in docx
format. Use the save as Word 97-2003 option. -- Graham Mayor - Word MVP My web site www.gmayor.com Word MVP web site http://word.mvps.org nnn5 wrote: Hi, I am trying to upload my resume to a recruitment agency website and when I try to do it it comes up with an error that says "the file type you are uploading to ......must be a doc extension.

It seems you didn't. The Word 97-2003 save as option will save the document
with the doc extension. -- Graham Mayor - Word MVP My web site www.gmayor.com Word MVP web site http://word.mvps.org nnn5 wrote: Yes, but i have saved as 97-2003 option.

I suspect that you have Windows setup with its default setting of not
displaying filename extensions. It might be a plan to change this from, Windows Explorer Tools Folder Options View so that there is less scope for confusion. Note that simply renaming a docx file to doc, does not change the file type. -- Graham Mayor - Word MVP My web site www.gmayor.com Word MVP web site http://word.mvps.org Graham Mayor wrote: It seems you didn't.
