If after applying the registry fix (repeated numerous times above) Word 2003 still opens the file in random characters try this:Go to Tools Options General (Tab)And check “Confirm Conversion at Open”When you next try to open the document it will prompt you with a list to convert from. Found another work-around when using Office 2003 with converters installed for Office 2007, and trying to open embedded.docx objects inside a.docx document:Right click on the embedded Package Object Edit PackagePop-up window appearsFile Save Contents enter file with same extension to local folder (no feedback that it saved)Go to local folder Open doc, installed converter runs Save As a 2003 type doc (ie.doc instead of.docx)Now you can reopen the doc and it will not go through the conversion process. You have to convert the document using Office 2007 or 2010.Another reported solution is to try to convert the extension of the file to.xls or.docFeel free to post your comments below.
