There is a major bug which Microsoft say they are going to fix by christmas this year.
Beware, it occurs when importing from 2003 and then re-saving. It scrammbles the data. Microsoft have a "work around", which requires the user to save to a compltlet new file EVERY time a change is made. But they will not gauarantee that it will work all the time BEWARE.
My advice as a very experienced user is stick with 2003 or use Primavera !
I have noticed that lead between to tasks is not correctly displayed, a 1 day lead does not show on screen, you need to have a 2 day lead for that; a 1 day lead in a ms project 2007 fresh project displays correctly

page a few weeks ago which was written as a result of my frustration with Microsoft not advising people of the bug and not taking any action
Good luck but be careful, dont use project 2007 for anything that might be used for contract/legal reasons, it is very very risky
