Hi Dragana,
Simply opening a document with Word 2007 won't of itself break any internal links. If they break upon opening, the problem is with
the original document. Similarly, refreshing the links in Word 2007 and/or saving the document in the docx format won't of itself
break the links. If you've changed operating system and the document has a hyperlink base set, that might break the links, since
user file paths in Vista, for example, differ from the paths in earlier versions.
