How do I share a document with someone who does not have my version of Word?
Answer:
1. Choose Save As from the File menu.
2. In the Save as type box, select the file type you want to use.
If you're not sure what file type will work (such as when you are sending a document to someone else) choose Rich Text Format (*.rtf) or WordPerfect 5.1 for DOS (*.doc). All recent word processing programs for Windows or Macintosh can read either of these formats. However, the conversion is sometimes not perfect and any formatting Word cannot convert will be discarded.
