This is not a question, but a suggestion for Microsoft to address
compatibility inconsistencies across the 2007 applications (Word, Excel &
PowerPoint).
I'm collecting and maintaining these as a list here:
http://www.slideshare.net/funnybroad/office-2007-compatibility-inconsistencies-and-bugs
It is also for any Office 2007 users out there who will be collaborating on
the same files with Office 2003 + Compatibility pack users. There are a LOT
of gotchas that Microsoft either 1) does not acknowledge at all -- either in
documentation or in warning/informational messages presented to the users OR
2) sort-of acknowledge in vague terms, but leaves out the details, so the
statements are mostly true. (You'll see what I mean when you look at the
examples in the slideshow)
If any of you find any errors in the materials I presented, I would be more
than happy to make corrections, so send me an email.
If any of you want to add to the list, send me an email.
If you are on the Microsoft Office 2007 team, and you recognize any
bugs/inconsistencies, and you know that your team has plans and a schedule to
address them, it would be nice if you could let your customers know...
especially WHEN.
