Default Sharing with older version

I have Excel 2003 and need to send a form to someone using an older version.
How do I alter my form so they can view it?

Default Sharing with older version

If the other user has Excel 97 or later, they should be able to open
your file with no problems. If the user has an earlier version, you
can do a Save As and in that dialog, go to the Save As Type dropdown
box and select the version used by the other user.

What version of excel is the recipient using?

If that recipient is using xl97-2007, then there's a very good chance that you
wouldn't have to do anything special.
