I don't have 2003 on this machine, but generally all MS products work the same way. Just do a File|Save As and select the appropriate file type from the dropdown selector

Microsoft in thier wisdom have not made Visio 2003 backwards compliant with Visio 2002 or Visio 2000, both the other programs will read write to each other.
One possibility is for your file receiver to obtain a Visio 2003 viewer from Microsoft which is free to download see the link
