I have Office 2003 with service pack 3 installed. I installed the Office 2007
compatibility pack. I can open powerpoint 2007 and Excel 2007 documents. When
I try to open Word 2007 documents I get "There was an error opening the file"
.. I have download the most recent version of the compatibility pack. Can
anyone help? I have tried uninstalling and reinstall the pack . Thanks for
any replies.
