Recently upgraded to Office 2010 Home and Student from Office 2003 Student. Upon opening a few of the older Word documents, some text is garbled. I've done a lot of online searching and have tried several things that kept being suggested: 1)checked to make certain the older files are in fact Word documents, 2) checked to be certain they had been opened as Word documents, 3) checked to be certain the file extension is .doc, and 3) tried changing the garbled text to ALL the fonts in Word 2010 but this didn't work either. The symbols changed based on which font I tried, but still nothing is recognizable.
These documents were created in Word 2003 about 10 years ago. They are instructions for a class, so any suggestions are greatly appreciated.
