Save security problem?
When I save a Word file I now get a message:
€śThis file needs to be saved using the Word 6.0/95 text converter. €¦using this converter may pose a security risk.€ť This started after I installed an old Office 95 version of components such as Excel, Access€¦ However, I did not install the old 95 version of Word. I have deleted the old 95 Office components and reinstalled Word 2002 + SP3, but it did not fix the problem. How do I fix this problem? I am running WinXP. Mike |

Go to Tools/Options/Save and make sure your default Save As type isn't
set to "Word 6.0/95". -- Please post all follow-up questions to the newsgroup.

I checked Tools/Options/Save and the only default save type for a word
document is "Word Document (*.doc)" I am supposedly running Word 2002 (10.6612.6714) SP3. Any other suggestions as to how to eliminate the "Word6.0/95 text converter" problem???
