Microsoft's Word Program uses the '.doc' file extension for all version of Word up to 2007. The new 2007 Word program uses '.docx', which makes this kind of file incompatible with previous versions of Word, however there is something called a Word Viewer (downloadable online) to enable you to view this new type of file. The reason this new file type was created, is because Microsoft Word 2007+ can do many more things than the previous versions, therefore if the file extensions were the same, an old version of Microsoft Word could try to open the file that it doesn't understand, and could crash.
