EXCEL 97 WORK IN 2007?
Have used Office 97 programs to perform my small business records. All of my
500 or so customers information is in Access 97 along with my sales info.. Have alot of files in Excel also. I want to upgrade to Office Ultimate 2007 but.......will all of my "old" stuff upconvert to Office 2007? Or, will Office 2007 be able to read my files created in Office 97 and convert them to savable records? Please help, Peterfst in SLC |

It's not possible to say they all will, but it is certainly designed to. I would back-up the files and then gradually upgraded them by saving as the new format and then opening and closing the files. You may have some linking issues, but it should be minor -- HTH Nick Hodge Microsoft MVP - Excel Southampton, England DTHIS web: www.excelusergroup.org web: www.nickhodge.co.uk "PETERFST" wrote in message ...
