Word 2007 : save as type "Word97 - 2003" doesn't woerk
HI everybody,
I try to save a Word 2007 document as "Word97 - 2003": I did : office - save as - save as type: Word 97 - 2003 Document If I open the document with Word 2003, the format changes: - the words are in the colour are black or blue. - many words are underlined I already set in Word 2007 in register "review" - track changes - change tracking option "markup-area" to "none". Also I disflagged all others. But it still does not work. What is the solution ? Thank you. Harald |

From your description, I don't think there's anything wrong with _save as
type_. Track changes settings do not travel with the document. So when you open a word document on a different computer--whether it was saved as or not-- you must change the settings to what you want.

Word 2007 : save as type "Word97 - 2003" doesn't woerk
Hi PamC,
thanks for the info. Just an example: I bought WORD2007 (Office Home and Student 2007) just here in New Zealand 5 days ago. I write my application (cover letter and CV) on my laptop (German XP version) and will send these Word document to the employer/recruiter. Some of them don't like PDF format. If they will open my documents with word 2003 then they look so "strange" (seems to be they are still in process). If I am an employer I expect a "perfect" application. I don't want to change any format. Thus I expect also. I never changed any format when I got Word documents by email. Who can I contact ? I like really send one of my documents to MS support whether they can check it. Do you know the way ? Thank you very much in advance.

You're missing the point. If you don't want recipients to see markup, you
must remove it before sending the document, by accepting all changes and removing all comments. -- Suzanne S.

Word 2007 : save as type "Word97 - 2003" doesn't woerk
And speaking as a New Zealander, I find it hard to believe that any employer
would have a problem with a cover letter and CV in PDF format. Perhaps some recruiters might want it in Word format (so they can easily load your details into their contact management system), but employers would rather have a good quality, clean copy that they can actually read. PDF solves that problem very nicely, and hides any of the potential "sensitive" content in the document at the same time. Also I wouldn't bet on anybody you send a Word document to not making changes to it. Unfortunately, not everyone is as honest as you are - even in NZ. ;-P -- Cheers!

Word 2007 : save as type "Word97 - 2003" doesn't woerk
Hi Suzanne, hi PamC, hi Gordon,
thank you for your info. I think the problem is "by accepting all changes and removing all comments". I didn't know that. THis funtionality wasn't given in my previous version Word 97. Thank you very much for your help and your answers in such a short time. My fully respect ! Harald "Suzanne S. Barnhill" wrote: You're missing the point.
