Document created by older version of Word won't open
I'm currently using the version of Word contained in Office 2003. I have
some documents I created with earlier versions which no longer can be opened. I get this error message: "You are attempting to open a file that was created in an earlier version of Microsoft Office. This file type is blocked from opening in this version by your registry policy setting." How do I fix this? Thanks! John -- Please reply in this newsgroup.
