The computer lab upgraded to MS Word 2007. This means while I can work at home and then revise at school, I can't do it the other way around. Stupid computer lab. Plus, I'm not loving Word 2007. I don't think it's any better than 2003 and in some cases it's worse. All I wanted to do was put page numbers on my document. Once I did that I couldn't figure out how to get it out of header/footer mode and let me work on the paper again. Grr!

Okay, I'm off for seven hours of quality time with a classroom desk now. I wish I'd thought to bring some advil because my knee already hurts and the sitting marathon hasn't even started yet. *sigh*

YES! do the save as... the option in the save as type should say: Word 97-2003 & 6.0/95 - RTF (*.doc)

the good side effect is that your docs will be MUCH smaller... ;)

I dread the day when our students come back in the fall to find Office 2007 on all of the college's computers. I predict the library staff is going to have to answer many panicky questions regarding the new Office suite. Ugh.
=(

Thanks! Smaller docs are always good. :)
