Default Where is the Word 2007 compatibility mode check box?

Office button - Word Options - Save tab; set Save files in this format to
Word 97-2003 (*.doc) format.

There are additional and more precise compatibility settings in the Advanced
tab, near the bottom. But, I suspect that you want the more general one.

Another option you might be referring to can be found by clicking Office
button - Prepare - Run Compatibility Checker. In the resulting box, there is
an option to Check compatibility when saving in Word 97-2003 formats.
