Free Microsoft Word document viewer
Microsoft Office Word Viewer is a handy tool that lets you view or print any Microsoft Word document quickly, without having to install Microsoft Office in its entirety.
After a simple install process, run Microsoft Office Word Viewer and you're presented with an Open File dialog window. Remember: you can't create, change or save any document in Microsoft Office Word Viewer. Select your chosen file (the viewer supports DOCX files via a converter, as well as older DOC and other formats).
Upon opening your document, you'll see that Microsoft Office Word Viewer displays just as it would in the original Microsoft Word, only without any of the editing tools. This means that you can see editorial notes and changes, if they have been tracked on the document. Additionally, you may access the file's properties window which will display statistics and authorship information, along with other details.
While you cannot export or save any document from Microsoft Office Word Viewer, you do have two options for obtaining a copy of the text. You may either print the document (which works just as well as printing from the full version of Word), and you're also allowed to copy the text and paste it into another application.
In all, Microsoft Office Word Viewer 2007 is a small and useful free download for viewing Microsoft Word documents. While it has no editing functions, it lets you read documents from any version of Microsoft Word with ease.

A completely worthless product, and wrongly advertised..
It was advertised as 2010 and after downloading it, it showed 2003. A complete waste of my time, and a complete waste of computer space, And I've waited over 24 hours for a reply from my question/complaint from Softronic. Don't waste your time with this. It will not help you at all. More

Doesn't work on Word files after 2003.
Doesn't work on files after Word 2003. A free viewer is worth every penny. Waste of time. No better than 2003 viewer which I had already.
Cons:
Doesn't work on Word files after 2003, so misadvertised. A free viewer is worth every penny. More

it is really word viewer 2003.
when installing word viewer 2007 seems that it is really installing word viewer 2003... it opens .docx but not natively, but trough a converter and slower than .doc files.
Micrsosoft should release a 2010 word viewer because opening .docx fles with MS word takes a lot of time
Pros:
it opens MS word files faster than MS word
Cons:
Not 2007- 2010 native More
