Staying Compatible With Word
Now that Microsoft Office 2007 is out in the wild users of older versions of Office and Word may encounter problems opening Word, Excel and PowerPoint files from Office 2007 users. The new suite introduces new file formats, called Open XML. Frankly it’s a nuisance but there is a solution so if you are having trouble and you need to download the Office 2007 ‘Compatibility Pack’. It is for users of Word, Excel and PowerPoint 2000, 2002 and 2003 and once installed you’ll be good to go. The only exception is documents written right-to-left and complex script files created in Word 2007, in which case you need to read MS Knowledgebase article 925451 for details of fixes and workarounds.
