Re: .docx documents

Many users of this new version of Word, don't realize that no one else
can read their documents. They do, however, have the ability to set their
default "save" to doc. Or Rich Text, which is an archival language that
can be read on any computer using any system or software. If this is
happening with someone you know pretty well, it is a simple matter to ask
them to save stuff they are sending to you as a Word.doc.
