Visio 2003 should save drawing in 2002 format or remove the optio.

[Cherloo]

Microsoft Office Visio Professional 2003 allows you to save a file as type:
Visio 2002 drawing. However, you cannot open the saved file using Visio 2002
- it complains that the file was saved with a new version of Visio. If you
cannot save in a 2002 format, then do not offer it as an option.

 

[Al Edlund]

curious, when I do a save as it appears to work. How are you doing the save
and what version of v2003 are you using?

I believe there was a problem with saving as Visio 2002 from Visio 2003 that
was fixed in the first Service Pack.

Make sure your copy of Visio 2003 is up to date.
