Hi
Can some one help plaise

my boss can not open my documents created with OpenOffice 3.1 by its msword 2007

thanks

Which error does your boss get, and in which format are the documents saved that he cannot open using MSword '07?
Are they saved as .odf ? or .doc? or .docx?

Did you save your documents in Word format?

Lou

Thank you for your responsiveness
the file is saving as in doc, and the error message is something like a board meeting of problems must be close

I think that's what he said!! The only question is .doc vs .docx

What version of Word is boss using?

I always use "Word 97/2000/xp" and people can always read the files.

My version of OpenOffice does not appear to have the option to save in .docx
???

and the error message is something like a Office meet of problems must be close

II always use "Word 97/2000/xp" to. Abd there was no problem before, but for some days he is unable to handle file I sent tohim.

I have no idea what you are saying!! Give us the exact error message---and tell us what version of Word the boss is using.

He uses Word 2007

II always use "Word 97/2000/xp" to save files. And there was no problem before, but for some days he is unable to handle file I sent tohim.

Try Saving the documents in *.docx* format.
Go to "File >Save As" then in the Save As window select the Microsoft Word 2007 XML format from the Drop Down Menu right above the Save & Cancel buttons,

thank you very much Nabbel I'll try the trick

I think the problem is due to virus. Clamav found those virus on my laptop:

winnow.compromised.ts.jsexploit.5.UNOFFICIAL



winnow.spam.ts.domains.158.UNOFFICIAL



gspace.js: winnow.malware.cm.miscspam.387929.UNOFFICIAL

So,

It's a problem with windows.

Mods, please move to "General"

Try "Microsoft Word 2007 XML (.docx)".
