Hi, I have Office 2003 and would wish the BN not onky be compatible with that version of Word, butlso have a specific database programme like Access 2003 (and not like the present awful way we have to make databases - its so long winded its not worth the bother!) and a spreadsheet facility along the lines of Excel 2003. The sooner the better we have audio streaming and wireless connectivity, the better, then I can do my part-time work on the move and without larger equipment!
