For further information, the 'docx' of Office 2010 is not exactly the same as the 'docx' of Office 2007... both are XML based though. If you recall, the Office 2007 format was sent to ISO for approval but was eventually given approval only after some changes were made. Office 2010 apparently implements the ISO- approved version. I don't know if this means earlier versions of Office are now unable to open Office 2010 files, or if they can be opened anyway. Nor do I know if other applications with DOCX (2007) support are affected.
