HOW TO USE 2007 VERSION FILES IN OLDER VERSIONS OF OFFICE?

                          Microsoft Word 2007 documents are saved with a ".docx" file extension. This file extension is different from previous versions of Word where a ".doc" file extension was used. In Word 2007, you can open documents created in older versions of Word, however, these documents will be opened in what is called "Compatibility Mode". While in compatibility mode, some features in Word 2007 are disabled. You can convert the document to Word 2007 document by clicking the Microsoft Office button and choosing Convert. However, if you try to open a 2007 document in older version it results some error message.

           Microsoft office introduced a plugin to make the users lucky to use and fix those  error message shown when a 2007 document is tried to open in an older version like win XP,2000 etc.

        Use the Office plugin named Microsoft Office Compatibility Pack for Word, Excel, and PowerPoint 2007 File Formats.

                MOCPWEP2007FF enables you to open/edit/save Office 2007 documents in Office 2000, 2003, or XP without any work on your part. Just make sure that your office has the latest Service Pack installed - either SP3 for Office 2000 and XP, or SP1 for Office 2003.

           For more of your convenience  Microsoft provides docx-converter.com by which you can convert a single .docx  file. It’s a free service provider which enables you to upload our file and convert it into your preferred format.
