NO, and I don't think you can.

Have a look on microsoft website to see if there is a converter.

I assume you're asking this because you have created documents using the beta of office 2007 and now that it has run out you can no longer read them with office 2003?

It integrates into office xp or 2003 and allows you to open, edit and save .docx files. Although, as stated on the website, you need to have all critical updates installed before installing this.

Just open word and you should now be able to read the .docx files.

Problem solved.

Perhaps if you told us what you are trying to do we might be able to help....


and I assume you have all the security patches installed that it requires....

you open your version of Office then open the file you need the converter you just installed will make it readable in your version...you the save as.( note not save) and choose the .doc extension

Well seeing as you don't have Office installed I don't think the compatibility pack will help you much. I think you need to find your Office disk.

The Office 07 beta had to be uninstalled because it has expired. This was explained to you when installing it, that it was going to expire in February '07 and that you would need to reinstall your Office after uninstalling '07.

Only other option is to buy Office 2007.

This site says it converts docx to html/plain text. Not ideal, but a good last resort.
