[Casper] Office 2008 file format script

[Leacy, Miles]

Hello all,

I just thought I¹d share a script I put together to set Office 2008 apps to
save their files in .doc, .xls and .ppt file formats.  In our organization,
the Windows environment is not yet using Office 2007, and we don¹t know what
our external partners, vendors, etc. are using, so its safer to avoid docx,
etc.

Here¹s the script.

##########

#!/bin/bash

# Set Office 2008 apps to save in .doc, .xls. .ppt rather than docx, etc.

# Word
defaults write com.microsoft.Word 2008\\Default\ Save\\Default\ Format
-string Doc97

# Excel
defaults write com.microsoft.Excel 2008\\Default\ Save\\Default\ Format -int
57

# Powerpoint
defaults write com.microsoft.Powerpoint 2008\\Default\ Save\\Default\
Save\\Default\ Format -string Microsoft\ PowerPoint\ 98\ Presentation

##########

I hope someone finds it useful.
