Hi,

I have to open MS Word 2000 document in MS Word 2003 without formatting changes.

How can i do.

what are the steps to be done for that.

I need the formatting to be displayed as in MS Word 2000 documents.

My friend told me to save the MS Word 2000 document as .docx extension will this be useful for this.

please response.

Thanks & Regards,
Chitra.

I have vista and the computer won't open any doc files. How do I get the doc file extension? Pleae help

You probably need to install a program that understands .doc files, like Microsoft Word, the free Word Viewer, or OpenOffice.

I needed some answers as to why I was unable to attach many of my Word files as they were the docx files. Your website was SUPER easy to understand and I got the answers to my questions right away.
Thanks
