Get them to send you the document again (or recover it again from the
original message). Save it to your hard drive then open it from there. If
there is a conversion warning it is either corrupt or not a Word document.

Thanks for your help...It turns out that the school temoparily lost access to
submitted files located in their portal. So everytime I tried to resave the
document even on my desktop, it came up blank. Thankfully they resolved this
matter in about 1 to 1/2 hour. All is well.
