Lately, I have often been asked how to open a document that was saved with the .docx file extension. In fact, with Windows Vista installed in all the labs on campus, more and more colleagues who still have Windows XP are finding that they cannot open a document or a spreadsheet sent to them from an Office 2007 origin. The difference between your frustration and a solution is about a click away: "Microsoft Office Compatibility Pack for Word, Excel, and PowerPoint 2007 File Formats."
After you download and install the free compatibility pack onto your computer, which should be a rather straighforward process, you will be able to open all Office 2007 files including Word, Excel, and Powerpoint.
By the way, faculty members can purchase Office 2007 for about $45 from the Foundation for California Community Colleges. Click here and then make sure to click on "Work at Home" for faculty and staff, if you are interested in knowing how to get this special deal.
