I have received a ".docx" file and couldn't open it. Would anyone tell me how to open it? Not sure if it's sent by a mac computer.

Thanks
 
That's Microsoft Word's new file format for documents (since Microsoft Word 2007). You'll need either Office 2007 or newer, or Microsoft's compatibility pack for older versions of Microsoft Office, or something else if you don't use Microsoft Office. The .docx is supposed to replace the older .doc. Do you have Microsoft Office or do you use something else (OpenOffice, Word Perfect, etc)?

(I don't personally like .docx very much)


[edit]
Here's a link to the compatibility pack from Microsoft if you use an older version of Microsoft Office: http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/word/HA100444731033.aspx

If you don't use Microsoft Office then you will need to do something specific to that program.
