Office 2007 viewers for Mac - anyone know when they will be available?
I am increasingly getting docx, xlsx and pptx files from colleagues but can't of course read them on the Mac. I read in the interview with the head of the MacBU @ Microsoft that viewers were coming but I haven't found anything since. Does anyone know any more?

I believe most everyone expected to se the converters by now, but I'm afraid you know as much as any of us. The Mactopia site is the place to check periodically - I'm certain they will be posted for d/l there as soon as they are available. In the meantime the only option is to have the user re-send in 97-2003 format - which I realize is a royal PITA :( -- Regards |:>) Bob Jones [MVP] Office:Mac "Alan Hamilton" <agh@sysnet.co.uk> wrote in message news:C252C240.3234%agh@sysnet.co.uk... >I am increasingly getting docx, xlsx and pptx files from colleagues but > can't of course read them on the Mac.

For complex documents, you may lose some formatting--the MS converters are supposed to handle just about every possible case (presumably what's taking so long), and the existing tools out there don't promise that. But they may handle the basics enough to save you a few requests for resending. Somewhere I also thought there was a website that would let you upload and give you back a converted doc. IIRC, the date promised was Spring 2007 (US Spring--so maybe second quarter?), which is very fuzzy and not yet over. :)

NeoOffice 2.1 will open and save Word 2007 format docs, according to its
web site (haven't tried, myself).

dag.oyvindGood tip - thanks. FYI - Neo office does open Office 2007 but in my experience doesn't do it well enough - the usual fonts/layout issues come up.

Hi Daiya - I've tried a couple of the other options with "mixed" results at best. And as far as the web site deal...

Ex 2007 beta 2 transport rule question
Hello all Been testing out Exchange 2007 features, and i have run across a wierd transport rules issue. What i did was create a transport rule so that any email that was sent with a specific message clasification could only be sent internally. What is happening instead is any email that is sent outside the Exchagne 2007 org is getting kicked back, and in the NDR it is saying that the email was kicked back back because it was sent with the message clasification that i configured in the transport rule.

Office 2008: Slow, slow, slow (am I the only one?)
I've been lurking in the Mac Office groups for a few weeks now to see what people are saying about the new version of Office, specifically how sluggish it is. Oddly, I'm finding very few posts talking about this. On my MacBook Pro, the Office apps (even after the last patch and without any font overload or 3rd-party font manager) load very slowly, to the point where I'm reluctant to use them.

If we configure the outlook users to use rpc over https inside the office, what's connection status shown as TCP/IP or https? Thank you.

I am not very good with computer terms , so any easy to understand help would be greatly appreciated...

More than one copy of Outlook 2007...
Hi, Running Outlook 2007. Every time I click on the Outlook icon, a new instance of Outlook is spawned. How do you disable this 'feature'? I do not want to run more than one copy at a time. thanks! the shortcut you use to open it should have the /recycle switch - this will cause outlook to reuse the current window. why are you clicking on the icon once its open? -- Diane Poremsky [MVP - Outlook] Author, Teach Yourself Outlook 2003 in 24 Hours Need Help with Common Tasks? http://www.outlook-tips.net/beginner/ Outlook 2007: http://www.slipstick.com/outlook/ol2007/ Outlook ...
SharePoint/Business Portal, Office Web Component
Help. I have an intranet site using Sharepoint and Business Portal functions. The users are all off-site using their home computers to access. There are lists rendered as queries within the site that should be exportable to excel. Most users can do this using Office Web Component - and some never have to download the component. OWC is not available for users with Office 2007, so they are unable to download the query files into excel. Is it necessary for an Office 2007 user to purchase Office Project 2007 in order to be able to download from the site to excel? Am I even on the co...

Need some advice on using rpc over https in the office
Hi all, I need your advice on these. Is it better to use rpc over https for outlook users inside office than using TCP/IP? Any security concern since we need to allow internal users to access the DMZ server directly - exchange front end sever? If we configure the outlook users to use rpc over https inside the office, what's connection status shown as TCP/IP or https? Thank you. Depends on your Outlook config, if you have set your profile to use TCP\IP on fast connections (LAN) it will use TCP\IP, otherwise it will default to RPC\HTTP such as when at home. Some people create two p...
Exchange 2003 will not backup.
We recently encountered a problem with exchange when Symantec quarantined e00.log causing exchange to go down. I was able to recover the log file and everything came back up, and all seems to be working fine. However we are experience a backup problem. We are currently using the built in Microsoft Backup, and it is set to backup the exchange file store weekly. If you try to back it up manually or let it follow the schedule it fails and lists the following in the log. __________________________________________________________ Backup Status Operation: Backup Active backup destinati...

Export from MS Project 2003 to Excel 2007
I'm using the "Save As" option to export a project to Excel. Regardless if I choose Workbook (Project Excel Template or Selected Data) or Pivot Table I receive "Operation Failed!" when I export. Is there a compatibility issue between these versions or am I doing anything wrong during the export. I have tried to export both linked projects using a resource pool as well as projects which are not linked and are not using a resource pool. No compatibility issues as far as I'm aware, I've just done it. However, if you have SP3 then make sure unde...
Excel 2000 Pivot table in Excel 2007
I have created over the years a pivot table using Excel 2000 that tracks heating every day of the year. When I bring the Excel 2000 workbook into Excel 2007, the pivot table looks ok but when I refresh the data, I get very strange results. The pivot table is actually a summary of furnace usage and sums the usage for each month and gives a grand total for each year at the bottom. How can I get to use the Excel 2000 data and Pivot Table in Excel 2007? Thank you -- Ron P If we are what we eat then: I'm fast, cheap and easy Send me the XL2000 file so I can see for myself.
