is there an easy way to convert word 2007 compatibility mode doc.
I would like to have my Word document saved in a format that will make it
readable on another machine running an earlier version of Word. I save the document created in Word 2007 in compatability mode in order to ensure its accessability from a central repository of documents by filename. I now want to convert the saved document to HTML format, allowing me to retain both formats of the document in the same folder. Am I able to use Word to do this conversion, and if so, what steps would I need to take from within the compatibilty ode document to accomplish the goal? |

It's not clear what you're asking. On the one hand, the subject line asks if
there's an easy way. On the other hand, your message says you're already doing it. On the chance that I'm misinterpreting... you can save any document in Word 97-2003 compatibility mode. Click the Office button (upper left corner), then click Save As. Set Save as type: to the desired format, and click Save. You can also tell Word to save in Word 97-2003 format (or any other format) by default. Office button - Word Options - Save tab - set Save files in this format to the desired format. To save in HTML format (keeping in mind that at its very best, Word's HTML is a bit bloated and messy), click Office button - Save As - and choose one of the web formats. Web page filtered is a bit better. Mht will give you a single file (useful if there are pictures, etc. that you want incorporated into that single file). -- Herb Tyson MS MVP Author of the Word 2007 Bible Blog: http://word2007bible.herbtyson.com Web: http://www.herbtyson.com "Juergen" wrote in message ...

The following macro in Word 2007 will save the current document in 2007 docx
format and doc format in the same folder. If you do really mean html, then change the fileformat to wdFormatHTML and the extension to htm Sub SaveToTwoFileTypes() Dim pPathName As String With ActiveDocument ..Save pPathName = Left$(.FullName, (Len(.FullName) - 4)) ActiveDocument.SaveAs FileName:=pPathName & "doc", FileFormat:=wdFormatDocument97 ActiveDocument.SaveAs FileName:=pPathName & "docx", FileFormat:=wdFormatDocumentDefault End With End Sub http://www.gmayor.com/installing_macro.htm -- Graham Mayor - Word MVP My web site www.gmayor.com Word MVP web site http://word.mvps.org Juergen wrote: I would like to have my Word document saved in a format that will make it readable on another machine running an earlier version of Word.
