From: Kelli on 4 May 2010 12:23 I used to be able to open Word 2007 documents in Word 2003, taking advantage of the compatability pack. It is still installed, but I can no longer open the 07 documents in 03. Please advise what I should look for as a potential problem? Kelli

From: Frank Drew Leyda on 4 May 2010 20:32 I don't think Word 2003 was designed to work with DOCX files.
