I created a word.doc using Office for Mac 2004. Attached it to an e-mail and sent it to myself so I could open the document on my Lumia 620.
When I try to open it, rather spectacularly the phone tells me that it cannot read the attachment! It's saved as a standard word.doc readable by all versions of Word from '97-present. How can my phone with Office for Windows phone not be able to read a word.doc?
I tried this many times, even changing the file suffix to .rtf and the phone point blank refuses to accept it. Other word docs sent by PC's seem to open just fine on this phone, I find it shocking they've created this blind spot for someone using an oldish copy of Office on the Mac.
Does anyone else have this problem?
