One of my daughters is a student in another city and writes:
"I'm having trouble opening some of the word & powerpoint files my teachers are posting online. They all seem to end in .docx or .ppsx (or .pptx or something like that). At any rate, they end in X and my computer doesn't like them... The IT people said I need some kind of document converter because apparently my teachers are using a newer version of Office. Do you know anything about these converters?? Someone suggested "Open Office", but I'm wary of downloading something I don't know anything about."
Any help will be appreciated. Some urgency here.
