------- Additional comments from paddylan...@openoffice.org Wed Oct 14 12:49:50 +0000 2009 ------- I agree that this should be fixed. Some people -- e.g. those using Mac (it happened to me today!) -- don't know about using the extra 'x'. I couldn't open the file at all, not knowing about the Filter Selection, and I had to ask the sender to send it in a different format. (Of course, now I know how to open it, but think about how many people in the world will be saying, "OpenOffice says it can open Microsoft Word documents, but look, it can't!") If OO can't open a .doc file, please let it automatically check whether the MS Word 2007 XML format would work. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
