Greetings Dan, The simplest way to get the latest version oof OpenOffice.org is to download it from the download site http://download.openoffice.org You are free to use it as you wish, that is what is meant by Free software, it doesn't actually have a lot to do with the cost of it. You can use it in the lab, you can give a copy to all the kids to put on their home computers, you can use it in your schools admin area, you can give a copy to your teachers for their computers and you can even customise your schools own version and burn it onto CD and sell it to raise funds for the school. That's what free software is about. If you want a full commercial version with corporate level support, Star Office is available from Sun cost free to schools Cheers GL -- Graham Lauder, INGOTs Assessor Trainer Moderator New Zealand (International Grades in Office Technologies) www.theingots.org OpenOffice.org MarCon (Marketing Contact) NZ http://marketing.openoffice.org/contacts.html --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
