From: Dan on 20 Apr 2010 15:40 We just bought our daughter a Macbook. Have heard they will open Windows Office documents from 07 and Vista but not older than that. Curious if this is true. If true are there any downloads which allow Mac to view Windows Office documents from previous versions, ie: '03, XP, etc. ~ Dan

Or do you mean she does not have Office at all? -- JoAnn Paules MVP Microsoft [Publisher] Tech Editor for "Microsoft Publisher 2007 For Dummies" "Dan" <Dan(a)discussions.microsoft.com> wrote in message news:8B5CFD53-4030-4391-B569-EF89DC318CF6(a)microsoft.com... > We just bought our daughter a Macbook.

From: Dan on 20 Apr 2010 17:53 We bought the Mac version of Office, however the issue we're trying to address is if someone sends her a document from an older version of Windows Office, ie: '03 or XP. The understanding we have is the Mac Office will only open Windows Office documents from '07 and Vista, nothing older. If true, hence the need for the download I mentioned in the previous post. ~ Dan "JoAnn Paules" wrote: > If she has Office for Mac, then she doesn't need a viewer.

From: JoAnn Paules on 20 Apr 2010 18:42 I really doubt that. I don't do Macs but the Windows version will read documents that are several versions old. I suspect Mac will too - I'd even be willing to bet money on that. But if you want to be sure, post your question in the Offive for Mac newsgroup. -- JoAnn Paules MVP Microsoft [Publisher] Tech Editor for "Microsoft Publisher 2007 For Dummies" "Dan" <Dan(a)discussions.microsoft.com> wrote in message news:0A587100-D02F-43C6-B9C8-E04C863389A0(a)microsoft.com... > We bought the Mac version of Office, however the issue we're trying to > address is if someone sends her a document from an older version of > Windows > Office, ie: '03 or XP.
