Hi La Shawn,

You can use Office Files Button=Save as
and choose Word 97-2003 as the document type if the folks with Word 2003 don't have the Word 2007 compatibility pack installed. The
compatibility pack allows folks with Word 2000, 2002 and 2003 to open and save Word 2007 format documents (although it doesn't add
the Word 2007 features to those versions).
