Hi
I have a problem where I under Word2007, copy and paste content of another Word2007 docs into a new template. This template was created using Word 2003. All the copy/paste and save works fine under Word2007.
Then, when I try to open the same document under 2003, I get the 'File conversion' message and the content is gobledegook. Don't know where to go for this.
Any ideas? Are there any options I should look at while copy/pasting docs within Word2007 environment? Thanks.

It looks like the document was saved as a Word 2007 document (.docx) but with the extension changed to .doc.
Best wishes,
