Hi Crystal,

    problem is when I try to get it to transfer to word it gives me errors.

I don't understand.  If you're trying to run a TeX file in Word, that
won't work at all -- only TeX will run a TeX file, after all!  If Word
has an import-from-TeX facility (news to me) that can't handle your TeX
file, that's a problem with Word.

What are these errors you're getting and what program is reporting them?

Can you just run TeX on your TeX file, and take Word out of the equation?

I doubt the version of TeX makes any difference.

I don't know if it will help you or just make you more frustrated, but
there is a web page discussing various programs for converting LaTeX to Word:

Sorry I can't help more.

Karl
