Hi Liliana,

Although the file formats are the same, later versions of Word support
features that the earlier versions don't. If you've created/edited a file in
Word 2000 and you do so using features not supported by an earlier version
(eg cantered tables), the unsupported features may not be reproduced
correctly when the file is viewed in the earlier version. This can be
controlled by setting the later version to format the document in a way that
is compatible with the earlier version (see under
Tools|Options|Compatibility|"Recommended options for:").

Cheers
