By the way, many people have had serious layout problems when they go

I've seen this comment here before about reverse compatibility with
new MS Office products. I've never been able to pin it down. The
Microsoft website will obviously not talk about it. It seems that for
every reference I can find that brings this up, there is another
saying that there is no problem.
I'd like to hear for sure what we're talking about.
If I can get specific information, it might help me convince my
employer to look at OOo.
tnx

I think the part about not being able to read old formats would be
pretty easy to back up, but I don't have specifics of layout issues
version-to-version. I probably saw stuff in PC Magazine or somewhere
that discussed it, and comments here from people who had trouble, but
maybe somebody else can provide more definitive info.
