Yes, it could happen but the likelihood of it happening between various Word versions as it happens from OO to Word is not nearly as bad. Your point is completely valid, but the severity of the problem isn't as great between native versions of Word as it is coming from OO or another doc type.

I beg to differ, I was going to update my fathers laptop to Windows 7 but he really needs office 2003 because his employees use it and most of their documents fail in office 2010. I've been wondering why, I know it's because they do something wrong with tabs and such but as a Word newb, I can't figure out what it is. This almost doesn't occur when he wants to use open office but of course other issues arise with OO.
