Are you continually receiving files in the new Office 2007 format (i.e. docx, xlsx, pptx) which you can’t open and work on because you have not upgraded from Office 2003? Of course one way to deal with this is to ask the sender to do a Save As to the Office 2003 format and then resend the file. A more simple long-term solution is to install the Office Compatiblity Pack now available for free from Microsoft. After installed it will convert the Office 2007 format files to the Office 2003 format so you can not only view them but also edit them as you normally would.
