Web archive, single file (*mht)

Webpage, complete (*.html)
Webpage, single file (*.mht)
Webpage, HTML only (*htm;*.html)
Text file (*. txt)

I have no idea what those extensions are

There are numerous encoding options.

Does this have something to do because we are pulling the document out of a yahoo email?
That should have nothing to do with it. If your document is a .doc file, one of the options should be a save as word format unless Word is not installed. Old versions of Word will not open the files from the latest Word version unless they specifically saved in the older format.

Are you attaching your document to the email or are you inserting INTO the body of the mail? If you put the document into the body, then it is not a document anymore but a part of the email.

If this is not too private, you could email it to me and I will see if I can duplicate your problem or get it into a version of Word that will open OK.
