Question

If I get office 2007, will it work with my old office 2003 docs? And will my new office 2007 docs work with my old office 2003 at work?

Answer 1

2007 to 2003 won't work but you can use 2007 and after u finish ur file choose save as and choose a 2003 version of doc it's easy..

Answer 2

I have both Office 2000 and Office 2007.

Office 2007 will read documents created in all previous versions of Office.

However, I have found that Office 2000 cannot read an Office 2007 document. That is because of the new file format used by Office 2007. I don't have Office 2003 so I cannot testify to it.

Hope this helps.

Answer 3

Office 2007 is backwards compatible, however, the new format trashes all compatibility with previous versions. Either:
a) Save it as an Office 97-2003 document with the appropriate save option
b) Download the compatibility pack for your work.

Answer 4

Yes

IF you have Office 2007 documents, you can still open them in previous versions of office by installing the Office 2007 compatibility pack: http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/products/HA101686761033.aspx

Answer 5

Old to new, yes. You may get a popup regarding compatability checks.

And most new to old will work.
