Default Programming Office 2007 and compatibility with old office

Travis -

You will see innumerable posts in this and other newsgroups where people are
asking for help in 2007, in many cases because of differences between 2007
and established versions. Read some of these posts to get a feel for the
changes.

While you're at it, follow Tom's advice, and install 2007 on a computer
which is not mission critical, then test copies of your important workbooks
and programs to make sure they perform as expected.

I'm considering upgrading some of my machines to Office 2007, I have
2002 and 2003 running on other machines.

My main concern is regarding compatibility of my custom apps. I don't
merely mean binding the right object library, I mean Office 2007 is
supposedly a radical reinvention of Office (if you believe the hype)
and perhaps a lot of the methods which worked for the older versions
might not have parallels at all in the new one.

I'm not expecting someone to write me a treatise on the subject from
this newsgroup, but would appreciate pointers to some good web
resources that discuss this issue.

Thanks

Travis
