Microsoft Office 2007 is a major update. Word and other programs in the suite will use new document formats. Word 2007 saves files in the .docx format, which is different from the .doc format used in Word 97-2003.
The new document format in Word 2007 can cause difficulties when it comes time to share your documents electronically. You cannot open a Word 2007 document saved in the .docx format in Word 97-2003. When save your Word 2007 documents, you can save it in the Word 97-2003 format, but you would have to remember to do that every time you save a document.
You can ask Word 2007 to always save your documents in Word 97-2003 format so that you don’t have to worry about having any problems sharing documents. To do this, follow these simple steps:
• Click the Office button
• Click Word Options
• Open the Save options
• Beside Save files in this format, select Word 97-2003
• Click OK
Your documents will be saved in the .doc format, which is compatible with earlier versions of Word and you don’t have to worry about sharing your documents with people who don’t have Word 2007.
