Hello.
I have recently bought a new computer with Microsoft Office 2007.
However I was fond of the Microsoft Office 2003 templates and would
like to know if there is a way to use the 2003 templates in 2007.
Many thanks.
Dan Jones.
Yes, they'll work in Compatibility Mode. If they're already in your
Templates folder, just choose one from the Office button > New dialog. If
they're somewhere else (such as still on your old computer), copy them into
your Templates folder first.
If you want to change the templates so they create Word 2007-format files,
open each template (use the Office button > Open dialog and navigate to the
Templates folder) and click Office button > Convert, then save as a .dotx
file (or, if it contains macros, as a .dotm file). Or you can just save some
or all of the resulting documents as .docx files.
