You need to specify the version. Office XP files use a proprietary format that still hasn't been reverse engineered by OS developers, I think. Any previous version of Office should be trivial for OpenOffice, KOffice, as well as a number of other replacements.
AFAIK, OpenOffice will read Word XP files.
