From: Office word question Office word on
When I save a microsoft office word 2003 letter, it is being saved as an
*.xps file. Why is this happening. It never happened before. When I go to
print it, it comes up as an *.xps file instead of under the name I saved it.
How do I correct this problem
From: DL on
If you 'Save As' you will be given the option to save in the format/file
type you require, a *.doc?

....and in Tools - Options - Save, you should be able to choose the default
format for saving files.
