Again, try to send a 2007 .doc document to a Mac Office - or to a previous Office version. Try to do the same with a .doc from 2003 to a 1999 version and the other way around. It doesn't work, it's not in Microsoft's interest to make it work because they want everyone to upgrade to the last Office. That's *not* interoperability.
Don't let me slow you down - you just keep using words the way you think they ought to be used, not the way your readers use them, and I'm sure you'll have great success convincing every one of them.
