wanting to transfer a doc from word 2007 to word 2003

[carriek]

How do I take my resume that I created in Word 2007 and transfer it to Word
2003. I sent it to an employer and they want me to resend it in the 2003
format. Do I need to download the 2003 version? Can someone please help me
out with this. As you can tell I'm not too Word literate...

You don't have to (and can't) download the 2003 version. What you need is
already built into 2007.

Click the Office button in the upper left corner, or press Alt+F, to open
the menu.

Move the mouse over the Save As item (but don't click there), and another
menu will appear to the right. Click on "Word 97-2003 Document". Select the
folder you want and give the file a name as usual. That document will be in
the right format to send out.

As well as sending the document in Word 2003 format, you could also impress
them by volunteering that they could make their Office versions able to open
and edit Office 2007 documents if they download the free compatibility pack
for Office 2000-2003 from the Microsoft Office Support Site. It will also
give them all the new Office fonts too.
