Another option is to download the Office Compatibility pack.

http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/d...displaylang=en

this is the same site: http://tinyurl.com/y5a879

Or if you go to the Office button and click on options (lower right hand
side). You can then select save and set a default save format so
you don't have to remember to save as the old format each time.
