XP Office, Teacher and Student

[Coors]

I built a dual boot computer, with xp pro, and 2000 pro.
Everything is fine, but in xp, where I installed Student and teacher 2007, it all works;
but when I send something I have made(excel, word), everybody receives gibberish, weird symbols, little squares, etc.
I am learning excel, so I don't know
But I have checked in word, and it is only rich text; could this be a problem?
But I noticed, if I send the file to another one of my computers that has Office 2003 in it, the file will open.
People that want a file in word, see the gibberish, and these are corporations that IT must have something better than me.
Any ideas?

What version of Office are you using? If it's 2003 and they have an earlier version, that would explain it.

I've never seen Word 2007 but when you do a "Save As", you should have the option of saving in an older Word version format.
