I have thousands upon thousands of Office 2003 files on multiple shared
servers, My question is: is there an automated way to convert from office xp
to office 2007

Office 2007 can open Office 2003 files.

Why would you want to? Office 2007 will open Office 2003 files with no
problem. Then do a "save-as" if and when necessary...

because with amount of data containing macros and other special formatting, a
mixed mode environment doesn't work for me.

Hi Emmanuel,

Microsoft has the Office 2007 Migration Planning Manager (OMPM) utilities that can do the batch conversion run and some diagnostics
on the files for possible problems.
