Hi Jayz0210,




First you have to repair your corrupted .docx file by making use of some good file repair tool. Couple of days back, when I had lost some of my important business .doc file I was very much tensed and was looking out for a way to recover my data. Then I heard about tried DOC file repair software which helped me to repair .doc file and I restored all my lost data. This software can also repair corrupted Word document with .docx file extension. You just have to download the tool and use it to repair your corrupted file.



Good luck,

John Stephen

SOURCE: how to open files with extension ''docx''

.docx is the format for microsoft word 2007.

You will either need to buy a copy of office 2007, download the free viewer from www.microsoft.com then click downloads and type word viewer into the search bar, note, this only works to view or print not to edit.

Or you can download a copy of Open Office from www.openoffice.org it is free to download and use, but the company survives purely on donations so please donate whatever you can afford. That way they'll still be around in years to come.

If you already have Office 2003 you can also download from the microsoft site a free converter program that allows you to open and save back to the 2007 format, search for 2007 compatibility and you should find it top of the list of results.

How to recover MS Word 2007 Corrupted files

Here's where to look;
HD > Users > [my user name] > Library > Containers > com.microsoft.Powerpoint > Data > Library > Preferences > AutoRecovery > Presentation1_autorecover
Copy the file to the desktop and change the extension to .pptm and then double click it. Should be good to your last auto save point.
Cheers and best of luck.

Cannot open a file from docx documents

Hello there!

Well that problem can be caused only if you are using older version of microsoft office 2007. If you have MS2003 package, and trying to open docx file extensions that will not work, but you are able to use docx extensions with MSoffice2007 package. In your question you put that you already use MS office 2007 package,so i suggest your docx extension is somehow corrupted.

If you had downloaded it from the internet please redownload it again.

If that was your work try to save it in doc format 1st then in docx if you want to enable only msoffice2007 users to use it. Good luck ! =)

Please rate my solutions! =)

Sincerely

Problems with .docx files

For infomration on Office 2007 .DOCX file format, refer to http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/word/HA100444731033.aspx

I use Office 2003, and have installed and currently employ the "Microsoft Office Compatibility Pack for 2007 Office Word, Excel and PowerPoint File Formats" mentioned in article. This is, for the most part, seamless when reading in Office 2007 .DOCX or .PPTX files, for examples, in Office 2003.

Otherwise, in Office 2007, you can change and set your Word Options so that you can save files in a specific format, including a previous Office version to ensure compatibility.
See http://www.mydigitallife.info/2008/11/25/how-to-change-default-file-saving-format-from-docx-to-doc-in-word-2007/

Hope this makes sense... Good Luck!
