Either Word or a Word viewer. Win Me, like other Microsoft operating systems
contains neither.

The error you are seeing is because you are trying to open a document written
using a later version of MS Word than can be opened with WordPad. For details
see MS KB 276337 - "WD2000: Problems Opening Word Document in WordPad"
(http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=276337).

Rather that trying to use WordPad for such documents you might want to
consider downloading and installing the free Microsoft Word viewer
(http://office.microsoft.com/download...wd97vwr32.aspx).
