When she uses "Save as", she should select Word from the drop down list. Do not simply type in .DOC to replace .ODT, as that won't work. Also make sure automatic file name extension is selected. Also, it is possible to select File > Send > Email as Microsoft Word, which will take you directly to the email application, with the document already attached. While it is possible to make Word format the default file type, it's recommended that you work in the default ODF format and only save a .DOC version when needed. I hope this helps.
