2003 and OOo has no problem with that.

The quick work-around is to have them install the ODF plugin:

That helps mitigate the DOCX problem closer to the source.

You're saying that the person with Office 2007 should install an ODF plugin?


I looked at that website and I was right.

However, that is not practical when there are large numbers of Office 2007 installed.

And why should those people do anything to make their stuff palatable to OOo users? "Let 'em buy Office 2007!!!" I don't see any motivation for a dyed-in-the-wool MS user to want to use ODF, do you?
