I'm moving apps to a new development machine that is running Office 2007 and have encountered problems with some Word automation code. I know there are differences with the new version of Word but where these are documented? Among the problems I've noticed thus far are that all references to
oWord.options.printbackground
generate an error. Also, when an existing document is copied and pasted into a new blank document based upon the same template, the margins are lost. Somehow, I have a feeling that these problems are just the beginning. The client runs a mixture of Word 2000 and Word 2003 so changes just to mollify Word 2007 in my development envrionment are inappropriate. Can Word 2000 and Word 2007 coexist? If so, what's the best way to make sure the older version of Word is used by the automation routines?
