Word 2003 XML

I have some files from an old PC which are apparently in 'Word 2003 XML' format. Is there any way of viewing these on a mac?

Try NeoOffice, OpenOffice or Microsoft Office.

  • Does anybod know a solid way to open .xml files made by Word 2003 SP2?

    I've heard some rumblings about MS Office 12 finally supporting a relatively open xml based document format by default. Well I was looking around when I noticed that Word 2003 for windows can save in xml format. In theory it should be able to opened by any application that supports the schema.
    Does anybody know of a Mac app that can open this format properly? I tried Pages but some of the formatting doesn't come out exactly right.

    I was hoping for something that would show the file as if it were open under Word. TextWrangler and Smultron show the underlying xml code and the pictures show up as garbled text. I suspect that garbled parts are the proprietary components still in affect…
    I'm surprised that there seems to be little support for this format so far. Though if the format being outputted by Word 2003 were truly standard, support would have probably cropped up by now. After my last few efforts at opening the file I can only come the conclusion that the current xml implementation is half-assed.
    One more question, does anybody know if the .xml files made by Word 2003 are going to be the same kind of .xml files outputted by Office 12?

  • Issues with 'Rounding' function (Word 2007 issue? Works in Word 2003...)

    My colleague (using Word 2003) and I (using Word 2007) are working on a change to a template where we include a formula that has the function called rounding.
    She (2003) is able to preview the pdf but I (2007) am getting error message: : oracle.xdo.parser.v2.XPathException: Extension function error: Method not found 'round'
    All other settings that we have appear to be the same (same config file, same java version, etc)
    Does anyone know if there are some changes to Word 2007 that are causing this? And, any ideas on how to resolve?
    Thanks for the help!
    Background:
    -The function is designed provide a total weight value: each individual weight value, multiply by a factor of .80, round up, and then added together to get a total amount.
    -Because we also show the individual weight values on the output, (also multiplied by the factor of .80 and then rounded up), we need the factor and rounding to happen before the sum).
    The entire set of functions for the total weight value is:
    <?xdoxslt:set_variable($_XDOCTX,'sum',0)?>
    <?for-each:LIST_G_CONTAINER_NAME1?><?for-each:G_CONTAINER_NAME1?>
    <?xdoxslt:set_variable($_XDOCTX,'sum', xdoxslt:get_variable($_XDOCTX,'sum')+ xdoxslt:round((GROSS_WT*0.8),2))?><?end for-each?><?end for-each?>
    <?format-number: xdoxslt:get_variable($_XDOCTX,'sum');'9G990D00'?>
    space
    <?WEIGHT_UOM_CODE?>
    Error when attempting to preview the pdf after uploading an xml file:
    : oracle.xdo.parser.v2.XPathException: Extension function error: Method not found 'round

    Hi,
    I took my original file (didn't have the round functionality) and Word 2007 and did the following:
    1) Tested with xml to ensure that there are no other issues - was able to preview successfully
    2) Added the function you suggested: <?xdoxslt:round(1000.98978,2)?> and saved the change
    3) Tried to preview using the same xml and got the same error message about rounding
    I can't test on 2003 because my colleague is not working right now (she is the one with that version installed). I will try on 2003 later today (but I am guessing it will work for her because the other rounding function works for her).
    Thanks for any other ideas about this.

  • Is BIP ver 11.1.1.5.0 compatible with Word 2003

    I am developing BI Pub forms for E1 on a E910 and tools 9.1.0.4 release. The work PC I am using for the BIP forms has Word 2003 loaded. When editing the Word rtf template the fields will flicker and it often hangs when Starting .Net runtime. If it hangs I end Word. Sometimes it hangs during the flickering issue. It is very annoying. As a work around I bring the Word and xml to my personal PC, make the changes and bring back to the work environment. This seems to be okay but is very time consuming.
    I have looked for recommended tech specs as to whether Word 2003 is compatible with BIP ver 11.1.1.5.0 but I haven't found anything. Is there any documentation on this? Does any one have any suggestions as to how to solve the issue if it isn't a compatibility problem. Thanks

  • Paragraph Alignment and Justification different in Word 2003 and 2010

    Hi all,
    We are migrating some letter templates from word 2003 to word 2010 for our system and we found a alignment problem in word 2010 (actually, it is not a problem and I think the behavior in 2010 is correct)
    In word 2003, the following paragraph alignment will display like this :
    "To enjoy your membership in our service center, please remit a payment of US$
    123456789.00 per annual"
    In word 2010, the following paragraph alignment will show like this
    "To enjoy your membership in our service center, please remit a payment of
    US$ 123456789.00 per annual"
    (US$ 123456789.00 is shown on same line in 2010 but US$ and dollar amount are not
    on the same line in 2003)
    Although I think the paragraph alignment in 2010 is more reasonable, I still want to achieve back
    the look in 2003 such that we can easily to compare results.
    As in one post that I asked help in this forum, one expert shows me that there is option to set back the layout
    look behavior in 2003, I guess if there are some advance settings to achieve this?
    Please kindly advise to me on this.
    Thanks in advance for your help,
    Ray

    There is a difference, but it turns out to be a "2-factor" one. As far as I can tell, "enabling an 'east asian' language for editing" is the other factor. When you create
    a document with such a language enabled, wrapping of currency amounts works differently in Windows Word 2007 and later. Once created, the problem seems to occur even on copies of Word that only have (say) English enabled.
    In Word 2003, having such a language enabled for editing appears to make no difference.
    Whether "enabling of an 'east asian' language is the cause of the problem described by the OP, or the only thing that will result in such a difference, I cannot tell.
    Here, I tested roughly as follows:
     a. back up normal.dot/normal.dotm
     a. open Word 2010 and ensure only English is enabled as an editing language
     b. create a new document 
     c. Type 
    " $          a"
    (space, $, 10 spaces, "a", no quotation marks).
     d. Type text + spaces before that, until the "a" wraps onto the next line.
     e. save and close that
     f. enable (say) one of the Chinese languages for editing.
     g. restart Word
     h. repeat (b)-(d). This time, I think you will see that the $, 10 spaces and the "a" wrap as a unit.
     i. Save that.
     j. disable the East Asian language again and restart Word. Open each document and see how the wrapping behaves.
    Here, I happen to have Chinese enabled as one of the editing languages in my copy of Word 2003 and I do not see the "wrap as a unit" behaviour in that case, or in either
    of the two .doc fiels saved from Word 2010.
    Here, the behaviour appeared to be the same whether I used $, £ (UK pound sign) or the Yen character symbol, but not the Euro currency symbol.
    I saved my test files (including some created in Word 2003) in 2007 XML format and tried to pin down the significant difference. Per-dcoument compatibility settings
    didn't seem to be involved. Changing the w:eastAsia language attribute in the following element in the styles.xml file was enough to change the behaviour:
    <w:styles><w:docDefaults><w:rPrDefault><w:rPr><w:lang ...

  • Page numbers display as 5 of 1 and 2 of 2121 in a PDF that was created from a Word 2003 document

    We merge several Word 2003 documents into 1 larger document that we then convert to PDF.  The page numbers in the Word document display properly - 1 of 21, 2 of 21, 3 of 21, etc.  We then convert that merged document to PDF by right-clicking the filename and choosing "Convert to Adobe PDF".  For those of us with Adobe Acrobat Standard 8.1.3, the page numbers in the converted PDF file display as 1 of 1, 2 of 1, ... 21 of 1.  Those with Acrobat Professional 8.1.3, they display as 1 of 21, 2 of 2121, 3 of 212121, etc., each page adding another total number of pages to the total.  There is no change in the result if using v8.0.0 or 8.1.4  Does anyone have any ideas???

    Unless you have a specific reason to upgrade to OFFICE 2007, I would not recommend it. I hate it -- have it on two computers. I have had problems creating PDFs reliably from WORD 2007 and PPT 2007, at least with graphics. The conversion seems to want to split graphics up into several parts rather than leave it as one. It does not happen with WORD 2003 and so assume this is some sort of issue with OFFICE 2007. You can get the graphics fine if you use the MS plugin for PDF creation, but then you have to deal with the MS version of a PDF. If you want to try it on one computer in your office, I would do that before you make the change. However, if what you have meets the need, then why change unless there are specific items that you are looking for and don't have.
    OK, that is my opinion. I am sure there are counter arguments. If I had the preference on my newer machines, I would have OFFICE 2003. Bill

  • Why is my spell checker not working in a document using Word 2003

    I have a word document in Word 2003  .   I was altering it and noticed that from page 3 to 6 the spell checker does not work.
    I transferred the pages into another another file still didn't work .  Just copied a paragraph still didn't work.  So I then started typing the rest of the document into another file and straight away it underlined my spelling mistakes in red.
    So why not in these few pages of my document.
    This is a paragraph from the pages below.  I altered some words deliberately to see if my Word 2003 would pick them up.  It didn't. 
    The landlord shall be entitiled to pursue the tenant for any reasonable costs incurred as a result of the tenant’s faulure to pay rent including but not limited to any charges for returned cheques or any reasonable costs incurred
    in pursuing the tenant for payment of unpaid rent.
    But when I put it in here it does pick them up.  So it is something I have done .

    Hi,

  • Error message when publishing to Word 2003 from Captivate v5.5

    When trying to publish a project to Word 2003 that was created in Captivate v5.5, the author is getting the following message:
    Publishing failed. Please ensure that MS Word is installed and that the document is not opened and repeat.
    (Translated from German to English for this thread).
    The author assures me they have Word 2003 installed, and the document is not open as it has not been created yet.
    I tried it on my PC with v5.5 and Word 2003 and it worked OK for me.
    Any ideas why it might not work for others ?

  • Importing Word 2003 Docs into RH7 project

    We currently have RH7 (7.02.001) and use Word 2003. However, we have some groups that are using Window 7. When we try to import a Windows 7 document (.docx) there is no option on the import screen to select a .docx file. Do we need to upgrade to RH8? Is there a workaround in RH (other than saving the .docx as .doc)?

    Hi,
    In 7.0.3, you can import .doc and .docx. File | Import | Word document.

    I have read some other threads similar to mine but none of them answer the question well enough to try anything listed there.  My co-worker can email me the Word file and I can print the file to my Adobe PDF printer just fine.  I have Acrobat Pro 7.0.
    Can anyone give me help on the cause and or solution to this problem????

  • RoboHELP 6 Crashes When Importing Word 2003 File

    Discovered this today by accident (after modifying a Word
    2003 file that I was previously able to import to "test" Help files
    using both RH HTML and RH for Word (both V6) and thought I'd report
    it because it appears to be a bug:
    If you select the following option in the Word file that you
    are importing, RoboHelp will crash during the import:
    Tools, Options, General tab, Web Options, Files tab,
    Organize supporting files in a folder
    When you do the Import Word file action from RoboHelp, it
    starts the import then issues a Microsoft C++ Debug Library message
    box that says:
    Debug Error!
    Program: C:\Program Files\Adobe\RoboHelp
    6.0\RoboHTML\RoboHTML.exe
    abnormal program termination
    (Press Retry to debug the application)
    Abort Retry Ignore
    Doesn't matter what you select. RoboHELP crashes and the Word
    file is not imported.
    Wanted to report this here in case someone else runs into
    this. It cost me a lot of time today.

    Hi Peter
    Thank you for the suggestion. I created a new project, new
    folders, imported the files a few at a time & compiled it each
    time (with one build tag in it) and found that only two files made
    it crash. On the one file, I removed the tables (which had no
    merged cells) from the project and it worked. The other file was
    removed completly and I will re-do that page.
    I then opened my current project (with all links &
    pictures etc TOC working) and imported the changed file and removed
    the other file and wala....I have a useable project.
    The project was on our own software so unfortunately I would
    not be able to share it.
    Being a relativley new (1.5 yrs) user, I find running into
    bugs are brutal....Thanks for all your help.

  • How to save edit settings under preferrences to use when creating or printing a PDF from word 2003 Windows PC 8.1

    I have tried to save my PDF settings after editing them, but when I go to "Print" to PDF and check the settings I keep getting Standard default settings.
    There is no Adobe PDF listed as a file heading to change conversion settings on my Word screen.
    I have tried to create a PDF by open file through the Adobe application and also by trying to print through the Word application with document open and using Adobe PDF as the printer driver.I have changed or edited the settings but they do not appear as an option to select, just the standard default settings.
    I have been able to save my setting as a Adobe PDF job options, but can't access them or use them when it comes time to convert to PDF.
    Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

    I have apprached it 3 different ways:
    - by opening acrobat and going to preferrences, clining on  convert to PDf
    - Microsoft Word, then changes each section of the edit settings, ie
    general, fonts, images, etc make the cahneges then hit OK, at this point I
    get a save as option rather than a save. It saves my changes as a PDF, but I
    am not able to access it when I go to make the PDF.
    - I also have tried to print PDF from Word  and got to properties to make
    the changs with the same results as above.
    - Then I tried yur suggestion and went to the printer in the control panel
    and had the same results.
    I am using mircosoft word 2003 which has been compatable with my windows 8.1
    I think the problem may be I am using a "trial" version of Adobe Acrotbat DC
    2105 version. It must not belettingme save the setting changes.But this
    shouldnot be if they want me to really experience the full effects of the
    program.
    I appreciate your help, thanks

  • Help file fails to generate RoboHelp 7 and Word 2003

    Hello, I am back again with a new struggle.  I am creating a WinHelp4 file for an older application using Word 2003 and Robohelp 7.  There are several different results regardless of whether I make updates, corrections, add jumps, change Topic IDs or do nothing when I click on generate:
    1.  sometimes it generates and works perfectly, just not very often, usually between 8 and 805am ET.
    2.  sometime it will generate an error:  Failed to compile
    3.  another error:  filename.rtf does not exist, but it is there in the folder
    4. generates a Warning, but I don't know what the warning is as it does not show it
    5. generates a blank Help with only a single glossary definition
    6. not enough memory ( 1 gb is available)
    7. corrupted file, rerun and it works...sometimes
    I have:
    1. Started over
    2. Rebooted
    3. Uninstalled and reinstalled RoboHelp 7 and all updates
    4. Tried adding one item (jump, new topic, changed topic, updates to TOC, renamed anything) at a time and then generated file
    5. Create an html from Word...I know silly but it worked some of the time.
    I feel like there must be a setting error I missing or something hidden that I need to remove.  There is something or a very big bug! I can't find anything and RoboHelp 7, Word 2003 and creating Winhelp4 files have been fine the last 2 months...now...not so fine.
    Please help!  I am so close to finished!
    Thanks,
    and if this isn't enough, I cannot generate a print to PDF either, but used to!

    I wish I could try on a different PC.  This is a government facility and that is not an option.  There are only 2 of us who have RH and I think the other person may have left last week...what luck!
    As far as anything else running, that is possible....I may try disconnecting the network and see if it will work...that should check it, right?
    Background resources are very probable as their are virus scanners and who knows what else...my rights are very limited, no Admin rights to the machine.
    It just amazes me that it has worked and now at the very final stage and updates it will not.  I am in early when it usually works, 745a ET and it failed.  These are the error messages and I usually get this type:
    Warning - HC4004: datcap.rtf is not an RTF (Rich Text Format) file.
    Warning - HC4009: The Topic ID "Data_Capture_Operations" specified in the Project files as the Default Topic does not exist.
    What is odd, is they are both there and have worked consistently up until this recent failure....cannot complile.

  • I can't create pdf files from word 2003 files in acrobat 9 pro any more

    Until recently, i was able to make pdf files from word 2003 documents using the "create pdf from file" in acrobat 9 pro. Combining several word documents into 1 pdf was also a piece of cake.
    Now, this doesn't work any longer. If i want to select the files, office 2003 files are no longer listed in the supported file formats.
