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?
Make sure that you are adding ".doc" to the end of the file before you
send it to the machine at work.
