QUOTE(SD>Big @ Feb 4 2007, 12:44 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}>oh, one thing that is REALLY annoying about ms office 2007.... the default extension to save files in word and excel are .docx and .xlsx which are not supported by any version lower then 2007 and you have to download a seperate reader just to view them if you dont have 2007 installed... so you have to manualy choose the .doc and .xls extensions when saving file cause, well, not many people have 2007 yet. You can change it to save as .doc or .xls automatically in the preferences. Go to the little Microsoft icon on the top left, then click word options (It's on the corner of the bottom right) and go to save. There you can select to save files in a specific format. The problem with this though, is that it actually does save it as a office 2003 file, removing any special things that were added in 2007 and saving them as pictures instead of the actual object. Equations for example, which can be used in word 2007 will be saved as simple pictures in 2003.
