Default printing defaults lost

Hi,

Does anyone know why this is happening? If I open a saved excel
spreadsheet in excel 2003, if that spreadsheet had been saved with
excel 2002 or xp, it overrides the saved print settings (ie. print on
both sides) and changes it to not print on both sides.

Further explanation. I save an excel spreadsheet on excel 2000 or
2002 or xp. It retains the "print on both sides" value in print
properties, regardless of how the default printer looks in control
panel. But if I bring this spreadsheet up in excel 2003, the print on
both sides goes away.

Is this a bug or a feature and is there a workaround? We jsut moved
from office xp and office 2000 to office 2003 and I don't like the
idea of having to go in and resave 600 spreadsheets.

I'd appreciate it if anyone knows to email me the answer at
(remove the "spam".

THANKS A BUNCH IN ADVANCE!
