Hi :)
Full docX support, as specified by the ISO standard, is apparently already the way LibreOffice 
supports docX.  The problem is usually that MS Office doesn't use the ISO spec so we have to work 
out how to adjust LO to be as quirky as MS Office.  Of course LO probably does have it's own quirks 
and bugs and those are hopefully being worked on to bring them in line with MSO practicalities 
rather than the idealised spec.  

I think there is an MS Office 2007 and a 2010 but afaik not a 2011 unless it's on Mac.  The MS 
Office 2008 is only for Macs and is really just 2007 with a different name to make it sound more 
advanced.  I heard a rumour that it was MSO 2003 with just the gui hacked around to give it the 
ribbon but rumours like that are not worth trusting.  
Regards from
Tom :)

Ok, thanks for the info. I will study
the bug report to see if there's anything I need to add.
docx (and xlsx and pptx) support is so important!! Really
hope full support will be implemented very soon.
Unfortunately I'm not a programmer, but please let me know
if there's other ways for me to help with improving
LibreOffice!

However, I notice that any comments I add to a .docx document via
LibreOffice Writer do not show up when opened in Micro$oft Word 2007,
2010, or 2011!
Is this a known bug, or am I not doing it correctly?

I believe this is a known bug
(https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=33463).  It seems that
Libreoffice does not save comment when exporting (saving) to docx
format (other formats seem OK).  As a workaround, you could consider
saving to a different format, like odt.  Word 2007 and later supports
odf version 1.1, as far as I know.  Alternatively, you could also use
the legacy doc format, which is more supported than docx.

From the bug report, it seems that a fix will be coming for this bug,
but I cannot say for sure.  If you have any valuable information to
contribute to the bug report, feel free to post a comment.

Regards
Stephan
