Our college has recently gone to Office 2003 and 2007 on faculty and student machines, then deployed Office 2007 compatibility pack on all Staff machines which run Office 2003. When a faculty member uploads a .DOCX or other Office 2007 file and then attempts to download it. The "Save As" box lists the file with a .DOC extension and not a .DOCX extension. So of course when you click open file, it opens Word 2003. The only way around this so far, is to train people on how to click "Save" add the "X" to the end of the file extension and then save and open it off the local machine.
If any one has any idea's on how to resolve this issue and have it automatically lauch Office 2007 file formats in Office 2007 it'd be greatly appreciated!
Our server is Moodle version 1.9.2 running on a Redhat Linux Enterprise v5.0 fully patched server.
Thanks in advance!
