I am currently using excel 2007, but have a lot of files that are regularly
replaced/sent to others not using 2007 and therefore need to keep them in the
2003 format. All these files are kept in the same directory, and, for the
most part, names do not change. Is there any way I can turn off the
compatibility checker for these select files (preferably by directory)?
Because these files are replaced regularly, file specific options dont seem
to work.

If you open these 2003 format files in XL2007, they are opened in
compatibility mode. If you don't use any XL2007 features in the file, you
will not get any compatibility message when you save the files. What file
specific options are you talking about?
