Default What is Compatibility Mode format? How its different from others

Word 2007 switches to compatibility mode when you open a file in Word 97-2003
format (or when you save a file to that format). Some features cannot be used in
compatiblity mode (such as content controls and themes). You can "upgrade" a
file to Word 2007 format via Office button | Convert.
