Hi Listers,

not sure if you can help but...

i am having trouble opening msword docs that i have sent from my home imac by email to the computer at uni. Strangely, if i send a word doc from uni to home it opens fine. So i think i must be doing something wrong.

i am using a ruby imac g3 using osx (jaguar?). I have microsoft office on the machine but it is os 9 version. The computer lets me use the application with no worries and also lets me send the attachment using Mail. But when i get to uni and open my uni webmail account the attachment will not open.... in fact it no longer looks like a word file.

I click on it and it tells me the file cannot be opened. I open word and try to open it from there and it opens a page which shows lots of squiggly lines and boxes.

At uni i can use either pc or emac but neither of them will open the file.

any ideas?

Thanks

johnny
