I had updated 2003 as 'exalted wombat' suggested.

I've found 2010 Word to be pretty complex - I didn't like the default settings on 2010 and spent some time resetting all defaults to mimic those in my 2003 version. Many resets are not very intuitive, and I still don't know what many settings actually do.

I never try to use the html productions of Word, and manually markup all docx documents in Word. Once the xhtml is added, Sigil accepts the copy/paste docx material.
Yeah, I had an occasion to use Word 2010 and was not thrilled. I guess I could've gotten used to it. Curious. If you don't use the Word html (I use save as 'web page filtered'), how do you do it? I mean, I know you said you manually markup all docx documents in Word but how do you do that? And what's the difference between docx and doc? Thanks.
