MS 2007 documents cannot be opened using MS Office 2003.

You can either get yourself a newer copy of MS Office or download and install a copy of Libre Office which will open all MS Office documents.

Libre Office is free, unlike MS Office.

Hmm understand that ms office 2003 does not support 2007 files. I dont want to spend money for the newer copy of office. What is libre office, is this a free plugin or proper program to resolve the not opening issue.

File Hippo is a reputable site where you can get all sorts of free, and paid for, downloads.

http://filehippo.com/

I use them for all my downloads. You will find Libre Office by typing it in their Search Box.

Libre Office is a full Office software suite and supplied as standard in most Linux Distros.

Libre Office 'Word' is called Writer and their version of the Excel spreadsheet is named Calc.
