"save as" Word docs

After upgrade from Office 97 to 03 I can not "save as" Word docs that were
created in 97. The upgrade deleted the older program and updated the
existing files. Help!

This should not be a problem, since the file format is the same. If
you look at the Compatibility tab of Tools>Options, you'll find that
the "Recommended options for" indicates the Word version where the
document was created. Note also that the Save tab allows you to
disable formatting introduced in recent releases of Word.

Stefan, you are absolutely right. It should not be a problem. Without any
changes to the files or system, the "save as" function is now working
properly. It's still a mystery. Thanks for your response.
