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).

http://www.pocketpcfaq.com/faqs/6/wm6enterprise.htm

"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.
