How to open documents saved in ms office 2007 beta version?

[Manx]

I am currently using a ms office 2003 and am unable to open documents i have
saved in ms office 2007 beta version.

I have tried downloading updates for the compatibility of 2007 documents but
still will not solve the problem.

I have searched the web for an answer but am out of luck.

I have saved great amount of documents in ms office 2007 beta version.

I tried to download the trial version for ms office but unable to download
since the country for downloading the trial is United States only.

I am from Hong Kong by the way.

Thanks.

I hope some threads of replies will answer my problem

Hi Manx,

If you have set Office Online (http://office.microsoft.com) to show 'United States' in the top left hand corner, click on the
country (change) link there to choose a different location, then choose the try Microsoft Office link from the Hong Kong SAR page or
close and restart the browser and use http://trymicrosoftoffice.com

If your files are created in Office 2007 Beta 2, rather than in Beta2 with the Technical Refresh update applied (B2TR) you may need
to update the Beta with the Technical Refresh (search on B2TR at http://microsoft.com/downloads) and resave the files in B2TR
format.

The changes in the final file versions since Beta 2 don't always work in the release version.
