Ed-Tech List Members,
Files saved by Microsoft Office 2007 use a new file format. People with earlier versions of Microsoft Office cannot read those files unless they have installed a special converter. Until more people begin using Office 2007, it is recommended (by me?) that Office 2007 users save files in the older format.
There is a wonderful video that explains how to do this on a file-by-file basis, or how to change your settings in each Office application so that application uses the old format by default. To view the video, go to the http://tinyurl.com/2dzoyg web page.
This video was created by California State University, Long Beach, using Captivate software.
