Saving Excel to earlier versions.

Hi, I run a spreadsheet a copy of which is emailed to various users on a weekly basis. One machine in particular seems not to recognise the print area and margins etc from my machine. I run 2003 and the recipient uses 2000.

I have tried altering the Transition to Microsoft Excel 97 to 2003 & 5.0/95 Workbook on my machine, saving the relevant worksheet to a separate workbook, renaming and saving it again as Microsoft Excel 97 to 2003 & 5.0/95 Workbook and then emailing as an attachment.

I went to the recipient's machine before I made these changes to the Transition on my machine and it certainly looked like a conflict of some sort was there with the print information because a number of modifications had to occur to arrive at the same printout that I thought I was sending . There are several other machines with different versions of Excel out there that do not appear to be having a problem receiving. opening and finally printing. Quite confusing.

Any notions of the known "beg your pardons" about "Print"conflicts would be greatly appreciated, thanks...

Regards,

DesC
