Hi :)
DocX is really bad for sharing with people unless you be be fairly certain they are using the same 
version of MS Office on the same version of Windows.  

The older MS format, Doc for 97/2000/Xp/2003 is still currently the best format for sharing files.  

Odt is becoming more widely used but the only version of MS Office that can really handle it is MS 
Office 2013.  The 2007 and 2010 attempt to implement Odf was a bit sub-optimal.  
Regards from
Tom :)

Both of the above LO versions have the problem. I can open a .docx document

it is all text with no problems. If the document like a new letter I get in

Tell the source to re-send in odt format, or use google docs to view.

I even created a new user and logged in as him, then using SUSE version of
LO4.0.0.3 tried the same document with the same results. Also I just took a

copy of a news letter I am getting ready to send out ( generated in .odf
format) and saved it as a .docx document. the formating was totally messed
up
and graphics were messed up also (graphics in wrong place, text in wrong
place
probably caused by graphics being wrong, some graphics just plain blank box,


Good. You should be sending the newsletter in odt format; most modern
software can view it, otherwise pdf/html should be used.
