You most certainly can save documents in Text Edit to Word format.
When you have typed your document, press Command S and type a file name.
Then, you will need to tab several times until you hear Voiceover say, "File
format, pop up button".
Press Control Option Space on the pop up button, then control option down arrow
until you get to Word 2007 format, and press control option space to select it.
Then tab over to the Save button, where you can press Enter.
This will give the file a Docx extension, which is what you want. That should
do it.

Subject: [real-eyes] Microsoft Word compatibility with Mac
I was just perusing this month's edition of Access World, and I see that in
order to run Mac for Office, you have to purchase a subscription. Thanks but. .
. no thanks--I hope! Here's my question: Suppose I write up a document in Text
Edit that I want to then share with colleagues who use Microsoft Word. What is
the best way for me to do this? I'm hoping I don't have to obtain Boot Camp &
or a third-party screen reader like Jaws in order to do this.
Thanks.
