Errors between Mac and Windows Word Users

K

Version: 2008 Operating System: Mac OS X 10.6 (Snow Leopard) Processor: Intel I am trying to exchange the same Word document with a Windows user that has the newest version of Word.

I use Word 2008 for the Mac. When my Windows Word colleague sends me a document, and I open it with Mac Word, it has @ symbols, A's and = signs that should not be there.

I suspect that these might be some formatting tricks the writer is using (but not sure). My Windows colleague is willing to not use the offending functions, but I don't know what to ask him to not to do.

Thanks
