Full support for Office 2007 files was added in version 3.1.

The issue has been resolved for me.

Could be closed?

I heard that is was coming in the next 3-4 months and that was 4 months ago.

We could not wait and decided upon Alfresco Share.

Office 2007 support for the Office Connector is coming in next release of Confluence - targeted in the next 3-4 months.

As Audra mentioned support for Office 2007 is coming in the next release of Confluence, 3.1 which is scheduled for release late November/Early December.

Subscribe to the Confluence blog to be notified when Confluence 3.1 is available.

We are trying to get our team up and running, and with our use of Office 2007, it is making it very difficult to move staff over. They rather use Sharepoint with Office 2007.

It is very disappointing to see that this issue has not been resolved yet. Office 2007 is getting adopted everywhere and one of the nicest features of Confluence (Document/Content Management through WebDav) is eliminated because users can find the file content of Office 2007 files through the search?

Please get this resolved ASAP, thank you!

Hi all,

I just downloaded and installed the new version of Confluence (v3.0.1) in our test instance. But it seems that 2007 office documents are still not recognized by the viewfile macro. Does this mean that the fix will be included in the next release of Confluence?

Please advised.

Thanks in advance.

We really would like the Office 2007 support to be realized as soon as possible. Since the whole company uses Office 2007 the lack of support in Confluence is hurdle for adoption of Confluence.

Specifically it should not only be possible to index Office 2007 files, but also to import them, and possibly even export to them (but that's a lesser priority).

This is a real PITA to have to resave my Office files to have them render in Confluence for the

macro. Any word on addressing this soon? It's already 2 years into Office 07.

Dear Atlassian,
Is this issue scheduled for 3.0 or not?
MS Office 2010 is already on approach but Confluence still does not support Office 2007.
Sergiy.

This is on the roadmap for our next release. That doesn't actually mean it will be in the next release. Just that it's on the schedule.

It is extremely important that Confluence be able to index the content of these Doc Formats.
Can we have a timeline when this will be available?

Very important as its now the default file format for the latest office versions on Mac and PC. And unlike Vista, those versions are actually being adopted...
