[QUOTE="chscag, post: 1106967, member: 46727"] This is (in my opinion) a serious shortcoming when using iWork Pages or the other applications from the suite. As Fodge pointed out, the only way to get MS Office compatibility is to use the "save as" function every time you create a new document. Apple for some unknown reason does not allow that particular setting to be locked in as a "default setting". My recommendation: Buy MS Office 2011 when it's released sometime late October. I'm not sure if it will be available in the UK at the same time. The release date is for the US. iWork costs less, but as the old saying goes, you get what you pay for. [/QUOTE]
