Hi G-list Thank you for all replies and thoughts. A G-lister offered to sort it for me by on his old macs and their corresponding versions of Word.
But the answer was even simpler: 2 minutes later, he emailed 'I just tried it on my work computer running Windows 7 and Word 2010, it opened fine, and I saved it as the 97-2003 version. Here you go.' So huge thanks to him and raspberry to me - I have a Windows 7 VM, with Office 2010 on my Mac Pro. It just worked! (Once I'd sorted the trust centre settings.)
