What does "saved to Microsoft Word" mean? Exactly what did you do?
What version of Word? Did you then save it from Word? What is the
extension (the last three or four characters after the dot) of the
resume file you are sending?

Employers use MS Word, NOT Works. Use MS Word for resumes.

Are you saying that you created and saved a document using MS Works,
then opened and resaved that document using MS Word? If that's the
case, what format did you save it in using Word, and what version of
Word did you use?
