No the formatting gets messed up.  I just upgraded from Office 2000 to Office 
2003 and ALL of my documents are junk.  I have text boxes and tables in the 
document and they are all over the place now.  I can't drag them back to 
where hey belong the documents are now junk.. Does anyone know where they hid 
the magic key yo fix this?  I really don't want to recreate everything from 
scratch.
