Default Compatibility Mode

Why is compatibilty mode coming up in the document title line? It is a new
version of Office 2007. Is compatibility mode an automatic? I want Word to
show all the bells and whistles but in compatibility mode - it won't.

Default Compatibility Mode

If you open a document from an earlier version -- one that ends
with .doc -- then Word2007 opens in Compatibility Mode.

If Word2007 is opening in Compatibility Mode when no document opens,
there must be an option somewhere to change that, but I can't find it!

That's exactly what is happening. No Normal.dotx or m, no other lower
version of word is opening. It's opening every blank document in
Compatability Mode.

We have to find this function. It must have been something that was done
when it was installed.

Does anyone know?
