Hello,

I have a excel 2003 file. My application is excel 2007. When I save the file as .xls, I lost all the format. So, I save the file as .xlsm verion. But, the user who use excel 2003 can not open it.

How can I save my .xlsm version as .xls without lossing all the format?

Thanks,
DD

Configuration: Windows XP Internet Explorer 7.0

Thanks. We are in the same firm. Just I am upgraded to 2007 and he is not. Is there an alternative way to resolve this (besides re-do the entire file again)?
