Excel 2007 to 2003 conversion

[matinst]

Do excel version 2007 convert to version 2003? I have the 03 version and
some of my customers send me 2007 files and I can't open them.

Hi,

You need the compatibility pack

When competing hypotheses are otherwise equal, adopt the hypothesis that
introduces the fewest assumptions while still sufficiently answering the
question.

If the sender saved the file in the native xl2007 file format, you'll need
something extra so xl2003 can open it.

MS has a conversion/compatibility program for reading the native xl2007 file
formats in xl2003.

Personally, I'd ask the sender to save a copy in xl97-xl2003 fileformat and
resend that.
