Here is the scenario



I create a document with specific formatting in it, columns, margains, etc in office 2010. My assistant then makes some edits on it using office 2007 and saves the file. I open the file back up in office 2010 and my margains are all out of whack, some cases the columns are as well. Does anyone know of a proper work around for this? It isn't practical to have to do this on every document I receive back.

Thanks in advance

UPDATE:
Now it doesn't matter, I create a new document, format it (margains, columns, etc...) all looks good, save it, open it back up and it's all out of whack. I attempted to remediate the issue following the suggestions here: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/918429 but none worked.

Hi dr.gonzo,

The problem may not be with the documents, but with your Office installation.

First, try repairing Office via 'Programs and Features' in the Windows Control Panel. If that doesn't work, try the approaches suggested here: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/921541
