Default Switching from 2003 to 2007

Yes it does but I would not recommend buying it unless you are in dire need
of
the new functionality introduced in 2007. I have both but I am using only
2003. Only when I
do support on 2007 do I use it. If you are intermediate or above chances are
that it will
slow down your productivity (at least for about 70% who do the switch) There
are some improvements but
IMHO not worth upgrading for. It is extremely un-customizable, only by using
3rd part applications can you change the interface. Functions easily found
in previous versions take extra clicks to get to, if you can find them.

I know there are some people that like it but the overwhelming majority that
I know of do not like it.

Hello everyone,
I need to buy an excel version and 2007 is obviously the newest. But my
concern is that I will need to be able to open and work on excel sheets
that
were created in both Excel 2003 and Excel for Mac. Will the 2007 version
support both? Thanks!
