Default Vista to XP -- word documents.

Since my new laptop has Vista and my desktop (with the printer) has XP, I need to be able to transfer what I write on here to the desktop. I have a flash drive but when I try to open the Vista Word file on the XP word, it doesn't work. It even comes up with a different icon that doesn't even look like a word document icon. I really would rather not to have to email it as an attachment, or even worse, email it in the body of an email then format it once it gets to the desktop.

Any ideas on what I can do?
