Re: Converting Word 97-2003 document to Word 2007


Paul –
Thanks for your feedback. My mistake was looking for the word create for a
file that did not need to change. I feel a little foolish that I did not
figure it out.

However, you said my Word 97 – 2003 files should convert automatically when
I use Word 2007. And, they all seem to do that. However, this one file did
not. And when I went through the steps to convert it to Word 2007, the file
did convert, but some of the information was missing. This particular file
had different formats in it and I suspect the conversion was not able to
convert them all successfully.

Thanks,
Jerry
