First, anyone not using 2007 can download a free plug-in from Microsoft
which allows older versions to open / edit / covert new style files.

2007 defaults to a .docx rather than a .doc format.

Use "Save As" then choose "word 97 - 2003 document" this will make it a .doc
file compatible with all versions.

To never use a .docx document (This will limit some of 2007 new functions
and formatting) go to the menu in the top left corner (office symbol
button): 

"word options" "save" "save files in this format" use the drop down and
select Word 97 - 2003.

If anyone out there has done what Carol did and updated to Word 2007, I have
run into that problem at my job.? Because I work in an English Department at
a midwestern university, and instructors were complaining about 2007, I
found a way to change the default in 2007 to 97-2003 defaults.? E-mail me
off list if you want those instructions.?
