True, but you might be able to use a file converter program to create a .docx
from your EW .doc. There are plenty of free converters that do .doc to .docx,
but I'm not sure it they work the other way around.
I have Office 2007, but never use Word except under duress. I've not had any
issues yet, but I guess I could load a file into Word & save back out.
