word 2003

[gz]

I want to upgrade to word 2003, but I am not sure if word 2003 is compatible
to word 2000? I mean, the same document may need be used between both word
2000 and 2003, edit, save, ... but may not use those new functions only
found in word 2003.

They are compatible. The file structures for Word 97 and later are
identical. Make sure you get the latest service packs, though. Yes, if you
use features not found in Word 2000 you may end up with documents that don't
work well in Word 2000. I have all of mine set to save in Word 97
limitations and avoid putting things in my document that don't work in Word
97. I still get the advantage? of the Task Panes and other changes in the
later version.
