Hi Nour,

If you have MS Office 2007 Beta 2, which expires 01Feb2007 you can update it to the Office 2007 Beta 2 plus Technical Refresh Patch
update (B2TR) then resave your documents in that version (prior to its 31Mar2007 expiration date). (Search on B2TR at
http://microsoft.com/downloads)

The MS Office 2007 file formats were being submitted to a standards committee and there were changes in the format between Beta 2
and B2TR that can keep Beta 2 files from being opened in either Office 2007 release version or with the Converter.

Like the OP, I've lost my Beta 2 too... Do you have any other
solutions (I don't have the Office 2007 beta anymore to install the
Technical Refresh on!)

Hi Gavin:

They are there now:

It is ESSENTIAL to ensure you have uninstalled the beta before installing
these components.

Cheers
