Subject: The File to Convert
I'm proud of myself for knowing when to contact you, but I still have to work on doing it sooner than taking 1/2 a day trying to get something to work that I know nothing about. ERRR...I'll learn sooner or later. I have a Word 2007 file that I need to convert. How do I do that if I have Word 2000. Thank you!!!
ps. I tried to open it, and it was gobbly-gook. I hope I didn't mess up the file. If so, I have another copy on a zip drive. Let me know.

ANSWER:
Here is a link to the converter for Office 2007 files....
Once you download and install the converter you must open word and choose File Open. At the bottom of the file window is a drop-down menu that says "Files of Type". Choose that drop-down arrow on the right side of the box and scroll through the list until you come to the Word 2007 choice (it says "Word 2007 Document (*.docx)"). Switch to the folder where the file is stored and click on the file and click Open. This will convert the file. Make sure you save it as a real Word document after by choosing File, Save As and choosing the Word Document file type from the same drop-down list. You have now avoided paying Microsoft for another useless upgrade to a software that hasn't truly been improved since Word 97.
Happy typing,
Ed Smit
