Matthew is right. There have a few security issues with Office for Mac over the years, but not nearly to the extent that there have been with the Windows version. Here's one example from a while ago (the link is broken at the second URL I'll be posting): <http://www.microsoft.com/technet/treeview/?url=/technet/security/bulletin/M S02-019.asp> Security bulletins for Office:mac are documented here. Links are included to the relevant full descriptions as well as the essential updates. <http://www.microsoft.com/mac/downloads.aspx?pid=security> -- Mickey Stevens (Microsoft MVP for Office:mac) PowerPoint FAQ featuring PowerPoint:mac: <http://www.pptfaq.com/> Entourage Help Page: <http://www.entourage.mvps.org/toc.html> -- To unsubscribe: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> archives: <http://www.mail-archive.com/entourage-talk%40lists.letterrip.com/> old-archive: <http://www.mail-archive.com/entourage-talk%40lists.boingo.com/>
