Turning off compatibility mode

[CPS]

Inspite of choosing the right saving format (2007 format) mode under 'word
options', i am unable to turn-off the compatibility mode. It is working well
for excel and power point. Any suggestions to overcome this. thanks in
advance

Hi CPS,

When are you seeing the compatibility mode choice? On new files, old files...?

Files already saved in either legacy (.doc) format or in .docX format where your settings were to maintain compatibility with prior
versions, will usually need to have applied either Office Button=>Convert
or resave without the Compatibility choice applied.

Hi Bob
I'm seeing this on new files. Since my default save option (Office
Button=>word options=>save=>save document) is .docX format, i think,
compatibility mode should be off when i open a new doc.

Inorder to overcome this, after opening, i'm forced to convert every new doc
file.

Thanks
