Opening Of Older Documents, etc. Questions, Please

[Robert11]

Hello,

Three questions, please:

a. Will the older WORD 2003 open up a text document created and saved in
WORD 2007 ?

b. Not sure what version comes with a new PC, but will the word processor
in MS WORKS open
up a text document created in WORD 2003

- same question, but text document was created In WORD 2007 ?

Much thanks,
Bob

Not on its own, but if you download and install the compatibility pack, it'll
be able to.

No version of Works or Word necessarily comes with a new PC.

But apparently there are Office 12 (2007) converters available for older
Works versions:
