I am having the following problem: Each time I restart Parallels (even from a suspended session), the various preferences from Office 2007 revert to their defaults. I.e. I always set each one to save in the 97-2003 file format and hide the ribbon. These preferences never persist to the next Parallels session. I am running: Late 2007 MB Pro 2.2GHz 4GB RAM 500GB HDD OS X 10.5.7 Parallels 4.0.3844 Windows XP Pro SP 3 Office 2007 Steve Shernicoff
