Office 2007 Users
Users who have Office 2007 on their computers can save each file in the earlier version. For example, when saving a document in Word:
1. Click on the Office button
2. Choose the Save As - Word 97-2003 Document
This will save the file in the recognized format for older versions (.doc).
A second option is to have Office 2007 users change the default setting for their files in Word, Excel, PowerPoint, etc. to automatically save in a lower version. This is better than having to try and remember each time you save a file to change the file type. To change the default setting:
1. Open an Office application, for example Word
2. Click on the Office button
3. Click on the Word Options button at the bottom of the window
4. Click on Save to display the options
5. Click the down arrow next to the field for Save files in this format and choose Word 97-2003 (*.doc)
6. Click OK to save the default
