lol, yeah that'd do it aswell

Alternatively, install Office XP...

you need to reboot,and if this fails you then need to reformat and if this fails you need to call microsoft.;)

Kerry your best of downloading the free veiwer of Word, it's because your trying to load an newer version of a word document in either wordpad or works. If you download the free viewer then that will sort it out.

but i dont think i have word on my pc

This also may work -

Word Converter

Try downloading that.

wot am i doing??? speak blondish :P

skinz - this should work as kerry is saving it to wrong format :thumbs:

ah right i have microsoft works would that be why?

You need to default .doc files to word if you have it, if not you can download the free word viewer from here.

Word Viewer

If you have word, then save the attachment to your desktop or somewhere, the right click on it and say open with then select choose program the from the list select word and then tick the box at the bottom.

Might work.

i doubt donna or joff would send me a virus :o

Sounds a bit virus-like. If you're not expecting them, delete immediately. If you are, save it, virus check it, open Word do a file open.

ok when i recieve emails with .doc attachments that open in wordpad (i think) i get this error message

wordpad has caused an error in MSWRD832.CNV
wordpad will now close
