Re: read new word XML in MacOSX Word X ?

If its true XML just for kicks have you tried a Web browser like FireFox. It reads XML.

Thanks for that. I'll email them. I also tried using the Open Document
Format support within the latest version of NeoOffice but it didn't
seem to recognise it at all.

Bye Jeff.

It's still to be released, since Word 2007 is a beta. My advice would be to
tell the person to resend the doc using the standard format (for Word 2003),
since only people running beta Word 2007 can open their doc.

Someone else may know if there is a different program you can use.

I have just received my first document in what I think is Word's new
XML format and I'd like to read it into Word X on my mac. After
searching these forums for any hints, there are mentions of a converter
program, but the topics were all over a month old so I couldn't reply
to them to ask about the converter. So, does this beastie exist or is
it still to be released ? Any other way of accessing these new format
files on a Mac ?

Thanks for any help. Jeff.
