George,

        Not taken in any other way than intended. It seems that most people,
sighted or otherwise, are having trouble with Office 2007.

Regards,
Léonie.

Hi Léonie,

Please don't take this the wrong way, but Word 2007 is so visually
different, sighted people would not find what you describe.  Yet ironically,
many of the keystrokes you use on a daily basis work.

As a sighted user, I am becoming more and more frustrated with Office 2007.
Just today I had to go down to my office to an Office 2003 system to sort
out someone's document table of contents and formatting. I simply could not
do what I wanted in 2007 because everything has moved around so much what
with these stupid ribbons which, contrary to what M$ says, take up way too
much screen real estate.

I will really have to get myself some one to one training from somewhere.

George.

Richard,

        When they save the file, ask them to look in the Save File As, box.
There will be an option for Word 97 - 2003. This is the drop down box you
reach by tabbing once from the File Name box that you're focused on when the
Save dialogue box opens. It's exactly the same if they choose the Save Copy
As option from the File menu, or the Save option. 

Regards,
Léonie.

Hi Folks,

A couple of people who need to send me files have changed over to Word 2007
and send files with docx.

I believe that as with earlier versions of word there is the option to use
other file types, but I don't know how to help them find the right option
list.

These are mainly sighted people, so if someone could let me have info on the
instructions to follow, I can pass this on to them.

Please reply off list if you think this is a bit off topic.

Thanks.

Richard
