Word 2003 Stub to Word 2007 file
We are in the middle of a Word 2003 to Word 2007 conversion process. We have an enterprise application where we have linked a number of the old Word 2003 files and when the file is converted the link is now broken, due to the change in file extension (DOC to DOCX). Is it possible to have a Word 2003 document act as a stub file which forwards the user to the DOCX file? This way, we don't ha...

2007_Batch Conversion Wizard ???
Folks... Our administrator has canned Lotus Word Pro for our office...for good. Now...one of our digital dinosaurs has hundreds of Word Pro docs (*.lwp's) that need to be converted to the Word format (*.doc or *.docx).

Converting Word .doc files without Word.
I do not have Word installed on my computer, but people send me .doc files. My usual word processing program does a fair job of opening them, except for images. Is there any simple way to convert these .doc files to .rtf (preferably) or .pdf files? I know one on-line site which will convert to .pdf, but it is limited in the size of files that it will accept.

Converting columns to Word 2008
We have some documents that are used as templates for various documentation. They were written in Outlook and saved as .DOC files. When I opened them with Word 2008, their format was changed. I could get close by clicking on the Print Layout button, and I saved one as a ..docx file and as a .dotx file. They now open with the correct layout - but we had some column entry (a few lines be...

I've used several versions of MS Word over the years but with my installation of 2007 in a new computer I seem to have a problem emailing a document as an attachment while in the document itself as easily as I could in earlier versions. To put it simply, the "send" button is still in what is now the "file menu" but the button is now grayed out and non-functional. While Outlook is part ...

Needed WordPerfect Feature needed for Word - Help
Hello all, One of our biggest problems we are facing moving away from WordPerfect 7 to Word 2007 is a feature that WordPerfect has dealing with form fields that as of yet, can't see that Word 2007 has and buying an add-in currently isn't an option. This feature being with WordPerfect, you can call up a dialog box to fill in all fields. Something really close to Excel's Form data entry f...

Using .docx files
I just upgraded to Word 2007. I notice it defaults to save files as .docx. I would guess that won't be useable by previous versions of Word. But I note that you can elect to save as a Word 97-2003 compatible document. I would assume that saves it as a .doc file. Word 2007 takes a little getting used to but I'm beginning to like it. It would seem the smart thing to do is to use the d...

Hi, I am building a Content Management System that allows users to upload Word 2007 documents to be published. On the backend we convert the Word 2007 document to HTML with Stylesheets and store it. I am using the MS Word 2007 API and calling doing a Save AS HTML to extract HTML. The problem that I am facing is that things like Lists are not being converted to OL/UL tags in HTML g...
