Specifies which version of Word to approximate. Use a constant from the WdCompatibilityMode enumeration as an argument for this parameter.
Remarks
When you open a document in Word 2010 that was created in a previous version of Word, Compatibility Mode is turned on. Compatibility Mode ensures that no new or enhanced features in Word 2010 are available while working with a document, so that people who edit the document using previous versions of Word will have full editing capabilities.
