Sharing Office 2007 documents between versions by saving with an older format
If you're concerned that someone doesn't have the installation of Office 2007 fully updated, then you'll want to save your document with an older file format before e-mailing it.
- Click the Microsoft Office Button
, and point to the arrow at the end of the Save As command.
- Select Word 97-2003 format on the list of options.
You may get a warning that saving in the older file format will cause certain features to be lost or modified. For example, if your document contains a new diagram, Word will notify you that the diagram will be combined into a single, uneditable object. That way people can at least see the diagram. But they won't be able to edit it, because older versions of Word don't understand how to work with this new feature.
