Whenever I had to print something off for class, I would use the school's computers to print off something I developed on a PC (they used a Mac). I never had any problems then and I don't think there would be problems now. Just remember to save your file with the right type of compatibility. If you do that, you should be fine. -- LeelaSeville

That's what I did when I replace both my iMac and my PC. Eric "Harald Staff" wrote: > Office 2008 doesn't support macros and VBA, go for Office 2004 if you need > that.

We have a mac at home user that has trouble printing mac files from work computers. Obviously, that could be a printer problem, rather than a file problem ... but he is the only one that has this problem (lots of almost blank pages with a few odd characters printing instead of the XL SS). Suggest trying small files for printing to start with ... just in case. :) |
