Microsoft Office 2007/3 Help please?

I'm about to buy Microsoft Home and Student 2007. I would install it on my home PC and save documents to a USB flash device. I would then probably take it to University where the computers use the 2003 version of office etc.

Would the files display properly and would I have full ability to edit and print them even though it's an earlier version?

I have Office 2007, it is better and easier, especially because there are people in my household who are not very familiar with MS Office. They find it easier than 2003.

There is an option to save in Office 2003 format in Office 2007.

So when you go to uni either you can save it as Office 2003 compatible mode.

The link below shows what changes would take place as 2003 wont have all the features.

My Opinion: Office 2007 would be perfectly fine once you know how to, even I have the student version and go to university. Never had problems with old version of MSOffice. And for some reason the documents look more elegant on 2007 and also they have good templates. Go ahead and buy it.

Sort of.

You will need to save you work using Save As for an earlier version else it will not work.

However, if you do that some of the things you have done may not be compatible and will be lost. If you are just doing normal work with no fancy graphs, text art etc you should be fine. You will find out when you try and Save As 2003 version, it will come up with what will not be saved.
you need to save it to microsoft office 97-2003 format. or the computers in the university need to download a compatibility pack with microsoft office 2007.

i experience while saving office 2007 files to 2003 format, its file size (especially powerpoint) become larger for about 5 times. the word also go out of the screen.

hope i help you.
