Word 2003 cannot open Word 2000 .rtf files......any ideas?

Word 2003 (xp) cannot open .rtf files created with Word 2000 (win 98)
WordPad will open them...word 2000 will open them....Word 2003 says "Word
cannot open document...user does not have access priviledges"

Kludge fix is to use 2000 to open the file and save as a .doc file....THEN
Word 2003 will open it.....but I have 2000 files!!!
