Someone known to me has sent a Word Doc as an e-mail attachment. In
the OE6 'attach' bar it has the Word icon in front of the title and

All I get is lines of little squares and

Any idea how to open it?


Maybe it is the new(ish) version of word (2007?)
I think there is some sort of free ad in you can get to allow word
2003 to open the new file format.


OK

Don't try and open through OE - save to disc and right click 'open
with' to control what happens.


I actually thought of that myself! Full of new found confidence I tried
Wordpad & Notepad - nothing I'm afraid.
