How does one view Office Document Imaging (.mdi) files in Office 2

[Steve W.]

Just put in new system with Office 2007 Small Business. Documents from
previous system (Office 2003) include Office Document Imaging (.mdi) files.
They will not open in any of the Office 2007 aps. How do we view these files?

Likely you need to install the optional Office Document Imaging. Run setup
again or change from Control Panel, Add/Remove Programs.

Microsoft Office Document Imaging is an optionally installed feature in
Office 2007. Just add the feature to your installation as described at
http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/help/HA012340671033.aspx . You'll
find the feature in the Office Tools category.
