Words change into square boxes
It sounds like the document may be corrupt. Try using "Open and Repair",
which is available (in Word 2003) as an option on the "Open" menu button in the "Open" dialog box. If this doesn't resolve the problem, then you will have to restore the document from the back-up copy that I'm sure you must have made since it's "really an important doc". -- Cheers!
