Steve,

To add to Arne's post and for the benefit of everyone else, Windows Mobile 6 devices are compatible with Office 2007 files.

Regards,




I was under the impression that WM6 was NOT compatible with the new Office 2007 XML based format. Checking a bit, I did find corresponding information to back that up (Chris DE Herrara, author).

"However Microsoft decided not to include the ability to read or write the new XML based file formats for Office 2007. So you will need to save the files in Office 2007 in the older Office 2003 file formats in order to open them on your Windows Mobile 6 device"



Has this changed? If so it must have been VERY recent.
