Compatibility Pack Version error on Office 2003 Update
I am trying to install Compatibility pack on Microsoft Office 2003. First I had performed all update which were installed properly. There were no errors at all. Now once the installation done on reboot I am getting this error. - this is a pre-release version of the Compatibility Pack and can open pre-release 2007 files only. Do you want to check for a newer version of the Compatibility Pack?I ha checked back for update but that also did not worked out. I do not understand what is the actual issue. What it is related to. I had tried a number of attempt to re-install the same, but it did not worked out.
Word2007 file gives This is a pre-installation version of CompatibilityPack
I am facing this issue with Word 2007. I am not able to open a Word 2003 file in that. I went to contorl panel and removed the update. Later on the error was constant. I found on some site that to fix the same in better way you will need to fix the registry also. I scanned the system with a registry scanner and it worked. I had did that in safe mode. Now word is working and I can view older files also in the same. There is a straight solution. If Word cannot read old files simply remove the Compatibility pack update.
