(That's not the default format. You need to go to File - Save as instead of File - Save and pick Microsoft Word doc format off of the list.) OpenOffice can open files in Microsoft Word doc format, but can not (yet) open files in Microsoft Word docx format. -- MELVILLE THEATRE ~ Melville Sask ~ http://www.melvilletheatre.com --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
