Word doc does not open in Oulook 2003

I am running outlook 2003 on a WinXP machine and can't open or save a
specific word doc but I can open other doc files without a problem. I sent
this file to another user and they were able to open it. After renaming the
same doc on the another machine and sending it back I was able to open it????
Anyone have any idea why I can't open the word doc with the original name?

Thanks,
Eddie

Based on the dearth of actual information posted, I doubt anyone could figure this out.

Wild guess, "there is a temp file of the same name stuck in the
temporary folder". Try a "save as" and then select and delete the
contents that appear in the temp folder.
