Save as 2003 .doc should be highlighted
It's that simple really, save as a 2003 .doc document is right in there and should really have a pointer to it. It only operates in the save as mode. If you dont know it's there, pre name your document, and click the save icon, your going to get .docX by default and that's where the woe begins.
Particularly bad if your a student or job hunter at home sending .docX atttachments to business computers that will only read the older formats. I wonder what the reason for not pre warning the home user is?
