[QUOTE="chscag, post: 1544471, member: 46727"] Welcome to the Mac Forums. First, your post was moved here to the correct forum as it has nothing to do with running Windows.... (where you posted it) I have never seen the problem you described but maybe we can try something to see if it works. Compatibility mode means the document is being edited in such a way that it will be able to be read as *.doc or *.docx. In other words not as xml. The next time you receive a document that has multiple authors and editors, try using the "save as" function and assign it a new name. Then proceed to edit the document. You can always rename it back later if necessary. Not a very elegant way to handle a document but it may work and save you time in the long run. [/QUOTE]
