Like the others mentioned, rename it ....... the x probably means it was created with a newer version of Windows software.

.docx is from Word 2007.

Best way it to ask the person that sent it to save it in Office 2003 format and resend it.

In the second link, there is a reference to an MS Converter Pac. Download that and install it. Then Office 2003 will be able to read Office 2007 docs.
Download details: Microsoft Office Compatibility Pack for Word, Excel, and PowerPoint 2007 File Formats

How can that be incorrect. I have office 2007 (word excell powerpoint) and every time I send someone a document it has the docx at the end. Everyone who has office 2003 can't seem to open the documents I send them. That is what a computer geek told me the problem was.
