Can a Microsoft Office 2000 Word, Excel or anything read a Microsoft Office 2007 Word, Excel, ... ?

Answer 1

I would guess yes, but save your files as RTF format.

Answer 2

Programs are usually downward-mobile.
2007 can read 2000
2000 can't read 2007 unless you have both programs --
In the 2007 program, use File, Save as
where it says filetype, click the down arrow to see if it will save as an older program. If not, save the 2007 program as txt or rtf, then open in Word 2000. Some formatting will be lost but you will have the text if that is important to you.

Answer 3

Yes it can but in Word 2007 save it as Word 97-2003 format. This way you won't lose any important formatting (you may lose some 3D settings if you used them but you can even see what you'll lose by running the compatibility checker (click on the logo and select prepare, then choose compatibility checker).

Same goes for Excel, PowerPoint, etc.

Cheers.
