After installing Lion, I can no longer open Office for Mac 2004. Went to Apple store when I inquired, they said to update Windows. But it won't open at all. Whats next?
Mac OS X (10.7)
I'm not sure what you mean by "update Windows." However, Office 2004 apps are all compliled for PowerPC. PowerPC apps will no longer work under Lion.
You'll need to update to a new version of Office, preferably the 2011 edition or use a freeware application.
There are lots of reports of that here, and perhaps the Apple Store meant to say upgrade Office for Mac 2004 to Office 2011. If cost is a factor, perhaps iWork would work for ya. Pages is very good and saves files out in word format that others can open, say on a PC. The reason I recommend this is for the Version features of iWork apps, which writers have wanted for a long time, and now we do!

Office 2008 and above for Mac work under Lion.
If cost is a concern at the moment Open Office is an alternative as well.
