Change from symbol language to english

[Kit_e]

Hi There,

My issue is that when I open word documents from a certain person, they come
out looking like a whole heap of "goobly gook" and are totally unreadable.
I'm using Word 2003 and am not sure what version he's using.

Eg of Goobly Gook: !šˆ–\"EÑÎÌÎÎnÒɶ*£5ø ­ÉØ8 ± Œ´J›EÆ>f/ñ=‹
£Di

Now I know he's not writing to me in a foreign language of any sort, and
he's not using a special code that only we know, so how can I fix this so
it's readable in ENGLISH?

Thanks so much in advance.

Hey thanks, but don't bother. Looks like there is something wrong with the
installation of Word at his end.
