Hi Rose

All you need is a small patch that will allow you to open new Office files
in previous versions of the programme.

Try this link http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/word/HA100444731033.aspx,
where you can read about the conversion and download the file.

Regards
Anne

That converter is for Office 2007 documents. This is Office 2003 and
earlier?

I suspect the problem here has more to do with a security update. What
happens if you turn off tools > options > general > confirm conversions at
open and open the document? Or even if you accept the seemingly scrambled
version in the dialog and continue opening it?

"The confirm conversions at open " already turned off. Please guide me the
other way.
