What is the error message that you are seeing when you try to open a MS
file?

Little more info should assist in identifying the issue...

Hello Wyllea

What is the extension of the MS file? If it is docx or xlsx, it is the new
format of MS that only Word/ Excel 2007 can read.
A conversion filter is on its way (google for it or look in this list's
archive).
I would propose to ask the sender of the files to save them in .doc or .xls
instead of the new format.
