I'm in the process of buying a new Win 10 laptop and have been advised that I should not  use older versions of MS Word and should install the new Word 2016. I'm still happily using TMG 9.05 and Word 2003 on my current Win 7 machine. TMG should serve my needs for as long as my brain continues to work, but I do need a new laptop.  Any advice on how TMG Reports work (or do not work) with the latest versions of Word would be appreciated. Thanks,Judi Baumgarner

Older versions of Office should work fine. I have Office 13 and all (including Access) are working fine in Win10. Reports output to Word work fine. I expect Office 03 will also work. You can open older versions of Word in later versions. Some macros may no longer work in updated Word, but the basic document will be alright, in my experience Bob On 10/3/2015 12:26 PM, Judi Baumgarner via wrote: > I'm in the process of buying a new Win 10 laptop and have been advised that I should not use older versions of MS Word and should install the new Word 2016. > I'm still happily using TMG 9.05 and Word 2003 on my current Win 7 machine.

I purchased and am actively using a Windows 10 desktop with TMG 9.05 as well as MS Office 2010 which includes Word 2010, Excel 2010, Outlook 2010, Power Point 2010 and Publisher 2010 etc. TMG 9,05 and Word 2010 are working very satisfactorily together. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Judi Baumgarner via" <tmg@rootsweb.com> To: "TMG" <TMG@rootsweb.com> Sent: Saturday, October 3, 2015 9:26:39 AM Subject: [TMG] Windows 10, TMG, and MS Word I'm in the process of buying a new Win 10 laptop and have been advised that I should not use older versions of MS Word and should install the new Word 2016.

I have TMG 9.05 running on W10 with Office 2016 (Office 365) TMG reports are working fine with the latest word. But note that TMG outputs in word 2003 format (.doc) and when the file is opened in Word it opens in compatibility mode. You may save it in .docx if you want, without any problem, but that is your choice. I do. with kind regards Derek Bandy -----Original Message----- From: tmg-bounces@rootsweb.com [mailto:tmg-bounces@rootsweb.com] On Behalf Of Judi Baumgarner via Sent: 03 October 2015 17:27 To: TMG@rootsweb.com Subject: [TMG] Windows 10, TMG, and MS Word I'm in the process of buying a new Win 10 laptop and have been advised that I should not use older versions of MS Word and should install the new Word 2016.
