Thanks for the advice, but it still seems to save in Word Pad and not as Word 2000/XP when the file extension name is checked - what else am I not doing or not doing right? Thank you.

You may also look into Tools > Options > Load/Save > General > Standard File Format (or something such) Document type... -> Saver always as... HTH -- Guy Ravi,
You don't only need the right extension, but first of all chose MS Word from the File Type droplist!
