It opened just fine in Word 2003, too, but with the special symbols displayed; and if they can be hidden, it would be nice to know how to do that. I couldn't find a way. In the meantime, though, removing the declaration with a text editor as suggested by frabjous, works just great, and I'm grateful for his solution to my problem.
