Peter,
I think you'll have to Google for docxreader.exe. It should be easy to
find.
The jpg attachment I sent was only an image file to illustrate that the
installation would go via a file called docxreader_setup.exe. I guess you
can Google either docxreader.exe or docxreader_setup.exe but the former is
simpler.
Cheers, David

I can't avail myself of David's suggestion- 'Save File' is greyed out.
Maybe
because it's a jpg.?
My version of Open Office does not allow me to open docx. files. Update
necessary?

I fancy that ifyou download docxreader.exe it will solve the problem -
Peter's at least. Attachment refers.

Subject: [u3aavcuss] E mail attachments I cannot open
Good morning everyone
I have received an e mail from the District Council with an
attachment which I cannot open. (This often happens, and I now know
how to ask friends to re-send using a different form, but don't want
to have to write similarly to outside agencies). The following message
appears when I try to open them
'This file does not have a programme associated with it for
performing this action. Create an Association in the Folder Options
Control Panel'
I am still using Windows XP and cannot find the 'Options Control
Panel'.
I have tried all the folder files, and associated options but nothing
seems to have anything to do with the required action! I think that
at some stage I must get a more up-to-date computer, but am partly put
off by the fact that as soon as one does that, they bring out a new
programme.
