Word compatability
I have some users on Word 2003 and some on Word 2002. The documents created
by the Word 2003 users can't be read by the Word 2002 users. Is there any way Word 2002 users can be setup so that they can read the Word 2003 docs without actually upgrading? -- | +-- Julian | |

Word compatability
I think agree with Chuck. I go back and forth between Word 2000 (my work
computer), 2002 (my laptop that I sometimes use at work), and 2003 (my home system) with absolutely no problems. I send Word docs (from home) to others without knowing which version they are using and no one has ever had any problems. -- JoAnn Paules MVP Microsoft [Publisher] "Chuck Davis" newsgroup at anthemwebs dot com wrote in message ...

That said, a lot of problems have been reported, with both backward and
forward compatibility. I don't think people are imagining these things. Like you, I've had no problems, but they do apparently exist. -- Suzanne S.

I've read about a lot of different known issues that I don't suffer from.
Believe me, I am grateful. -- JoAnn Paules MVP Microsoft [Publisher] "Suzanne S. Barnhill" wrote in message ...
