As I explained, I have successfully used that options/save feature to set
Word to save all documents in the Word 97-2003 file type. And that works
for creating new documents within Word. That's not the issue here.

The issue is creating a new document from the New menu in a Windows folder.
When I do that, the new document is a 2007 file type.
