Simon has attended:
Excel Intermediate course
Docx default file format
In Microsoft Word 2007 (and presumably in other MS Office applications) the default file format reverts to docx every time the program is started. How can I change this?

RE: docx default file format
Hi Simon, Thanks for the post, in answer to your question, Word 2007 will save by default to the .docx extension, if you want to change this follow these steps; Click the Office button and click the button Word Options at the bottom of the dialog box, in the dialog box that opens click the Save option, in the dialog box that then opens click the drop down Save Files in this format: and from the drop down choose the file type you wish to have as your default extension. I hope that helps best regards Pete

RE: docx default file format
Thanks Pete,
I've done this, but each time I open Word it has reverted again back to .docx
