Open Office is a great free alternative to MS Office but for licencing issues the latest versions don't work with Works files ( unless you are using Linux, but that's a whole different ball game <lol> ). There is a spin-off Open Office called Go Open Office that does do Works files so that's worth considering ... http://go-oo.org/ and I've used this several times on PC's that need to have MS Works compatibility. -- Best regards, Barry mailto:[email protected] MicroSoft Free Zone running Ubuntu 9.10'Karmic'
