I typed up a word document in the new "test" Beta version of Office and want
to convert it to a regular Microsoft Document that is readible and able to be
edited. How do I do this? Thanks.

Set your compatibility options to a previous version, depending on what you
currently have as a production version.

I'm sorry but how do I get into my compatability options? The previous
version is Microsoft Office Word 2003 SP2. Thanks.

You could have easily use F1 Help but I am feeling charitable today.

In Word, click on the Office button, then choose Word
Options->Compatibility. Make your selection there.

If what you are asking is how to save the document so it can be opened
an read by previous versions of Microsoft Word then under the
Microsoft Office Button (circle in the left corner), click Save As and
change the Save As type to "Word 97 - 2003".

Please post all follow-up questions to the newsgroup. Requests for
