Word has its place, but if you want to have a structured/disciplined approach to document creation, Frame wins hands down. There really is no comparison. I tried using WWP for Word, but I was so frustrated trying to set up the Word document for WWP that I gave up and went back to Frame. And I might add, I've been doing this for 18 years, and have been using Word since version 2.0, and there are still so many things I just don't get about it.
