Josephine, the simple answer is YES, the complete answer is SOMETIMES: support for the revised Microsoft Office 2007 formats is still being worked on by the team. To insure interoperability with *any* non-Microsoft application, always save your Microsoft document files in the "earliest" format compatible with the target environment. (For slightly more depth: the MSOffice 2007 .docx format is specifically problematic even for prior versions of MSOffice, as are other "extended/improved" MSOffice 2007 ouputs.) Respectfully, Mike C.
