Yes, I did save it as that file type before emailing it. I had checked
Automatic File Extension and also typed .doc after the file name However I
have just done a test by writing text in OOwriter, saving it as above and
emailing it. This was opened successfully by the recipient. I am wondering
if the prolem is with the original doc I am trying to mail. It is something
that was created perhaps 4 years ago in a (I don't know which) version of
Word and been modified several times since in Word 97. Charles

No, I did not have a "\" in the file name, but looking at some other
communications on the same topic I made sure I had .doc at the end of
the name of the saved document. This seemed to do the trick, but my
correspondent could still not open the attachment when I sent it.

But this question still remains: When you saved the file, did you
use this file type? "Microsoft Word 97/2000/XP (.doc)" Also, if you
emailed the document (I don't remember), did you save it this way
before you sent the document? Either one of these could be the problem.
