Yes, I agree: Versions are critical here...

If you have Word version 8 and you get a document from Word version 11 (Word
2003) it may contain an Equation Editor object from Equation Editor 2003.

Word version 8 (Word 97/98) will be able to open the document, but not the
equation. It will ask for Equation Editor from the CD.

If you give it the Office 98 CD, it still won't find it, because it's
looking for Equation Editor 2003...

Cheers
