Okay, this isn’t new, but since I recently upgraded to Vista and had to reinstall MSOffice, and had to research it again, I thought I would share it.
There’s still a lot of people that either really like the older versions of MS Office or they can’t afford to upgrade. Well most of you that use Office have noticed that the new file formats have an additional “x” on the file name: document.docx
There’s a simple solution to this, download the fileformatconverters.exe from Microsoft, it installs easily and then you can open the new .docx files with your older MS Office program.
Here’s the link to download direct from Microsoft.
