Correct, but the OP said nothing about installing, only reading older file
formats.

| Since office 97 is not a valid Office 2007 upgrade path, is it
| neccessary to uninstall Office 97 first, as opposed to allowing

| Office 2007 will open all previous versions of office files just fine.

|| I have been using Office 97 Pro and recently purchased Office 2007
|| Pro. I haven't installed it yet. I am using the XP operating
|| system. Every now and then Word 97 will freeze up and MS suggests
|| upgrading, since 97 is no longer supported. It doesn't happen that
|| often and I can live with it. I am wondering if my Office 97
|| documents will open in the new version Office 2007. I have read some
|| of the comments here about the differences and think I should just
|| leave well enough alone and not install 2007. Especially, if my old
|| documents will be useless. I also have some Office 2000 documents.
|| Thanks for any assistance.
