What green ticks blue arrows mean on document icons mydocs

[meekers]

What do the green ticks or blue arrows that appear on the corner of the
document icons in my documents mean? They have only started to appear since
upgrading to Office 2007.

I'm not sure about the "green ticks" but the blue arrows [lower left corner
of the icon] indicate that the icon is a Shortcut to something else -- a
file, a folder or a program. It has nothing to do with Office 2007,
however... my guess is that you've also upgraded to the Vista version of the
Windows operating system.

Thanks. Still not sure what they mean but perhaps they appear because they
are Office 2003 documents that will open in Office 2007?????? no idea????
Thanks again
