Problem With Word 2000 and Saving

[Guest]

I can type a document and save it no problem, but when I reopen the saved
document, it is all screwed up. All the text goes to 10 point times new
roman(even if I typed it otherwise) and I have all this code garbage in my
document now. An example is pasted below. I tried unintsalling and
reinstalling office with no luck. The saved document also looks the same
whern opened in wordpad. ***= personal ifo edited out.

June 2006

Dear Kryste,
This verse was given to me along with a sixpence for my wedding. I thought
you might like to have such a coin as a memento of your special day. (I
later had the sixpence made into a charm to wear.) I have put this one in a
small pouch so that you may pin it to your underskirt for your wedding
ceremony, a much more convenient idea than in your shoe!! Enjoy and have
much happiness!! Continued best wishes to both of you!!

Bighap. Open Word. Hit File-->Open. Change the Files of type FROM Recover
Text... to Document. That's all.
