First, click on any other open Microsoft program to see if there is a dialogue box open.

The document will need to be saved from the Mac's Word 2011 in a format that can be read by Word 2007. Microsoft are a law unto themselves and ignore standards and even their own established standard formats. Word 2007 was particularly problematical.
