File Conversion

[Michael]

When I open up some documents from inside Word 2003 using File Open command,
an error message displays stating that File Conversion needs to take place
and that i must "select the encoding that makes your document readable."
However, if I open up the document from Windows Explorer or Documents list ,
it opens up fine.

Try opening Help in Word and running Detect and Repair to see if that
resolves the problem.
