SR2 MS Word (2007-2016) problem

Question

Hello, 
 I wanted to try new real-time previews (external MS Word and HTML) introduced in SR2, but files created in Word 2016 are recognized as Microsoft Word 2007-2013 file type (I tried .docx files from various sources). 
 I also tried .docx file created using Google Docs - this one works fine. 
 Is it possible to fix this somehow? 
 
 Thank you in advance, 
 Vladimir

In order to make sure that Word files are converted with the new filter, check the sequence of the file types in your project settings. The new file type "Microsoft Word 2007-2016" should precede the file type "Microsoft Word 2007-2013". You may also remove the tick in the checkbox for the older filetype if you don't want to use it anymore. 
 
Starting with SR2, the default project template already contains this sequence but you may need to edit (File - Setup - Project Templates) your existing project templates in order to reflect this change.
