not the answer </font>you're seeking, but we've switched all of
our staff computers over to LibreOffice (<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://libreoffice.org">http://libreoffice.org</a>)
to avoid this very problem (among others). You can default to save
it in MS-compatible file formats, if desired.<br>
