Hi. A question for mac users: Can I open Office v.X Word documents an
simple Excel tables in (1) Office 98 and (2) Office 2001?

If anyone has tried I'd appreciate if they could let me know.

Many thanks

Tom

You would get a better informed response from one of the MACWord newsgroups,
but in WinWord, backwards compatibility is a feature or Word 97, 2000, 2002
and 2003. W95 has a different file format, though there is a converter
available for W95 that converts newer versions.

Yes, Word/Excel X and 98 and 2001 are all compatible, same file format, you
should have no problem.

FYI (if you do have a problem), the live Mac Newsgroups are:

microsoft.public.mac.office
microsoft.public.mac.office.word
microsoft.public.mac.office.excel
microsoft.public.mac.office.powerpoint
microsoft.public.mac.office.entourage
