frames

[Guest]

I am trying to open a word document I emailed to another user. The following
message appears "This page uses frames, but your browser doesn't support
them."

The document does not open.

Not sure what this means or how to solve the issue.

Hi =?Utf-8?B?bWFydGlu?=,

I am trying to open a word document I emailed to another user. The following
message appears "This page uses frames, but your browser doesn't support
them."

The document does not open.

"Frames" would be a web-page construct. Did you send the document as an
attachment, or as the body of the email?

Did you perhaps save it as a "Web page", rather than as a Word document?

What kinds of things did the document contain (besides text)?

Make sure the attachments is saved to disk, as a file. Then in Word, File/Open. If
you're still seeing the problem, File/Open again. This time, from the list at the
very bottom - where you should see "Word Document *.doc" - select "Recover text
from any file". Does that at least show you the text that was in the document?
