Not sure if it is the cost or something else that is keeping you from Word. I finally took the plunge and have never regretted it. The Student Edition cost under $200 in the US if I recall (maybe less?). John

When I discovered this it was a breakthrough, as it means I don't have to buy Word for the Mac. However, some of my clients tell me they can't open the files on their PCs. I have tested my method here (where I also have a PC on a different internet connection) and it works just fine - the attachments show up iconised (if that's the word!!) as Word and open normally. What am I, or my clients, doing wrong?? Heather Welford -- http://www.heatherwelford.co.uk -- The iMac List is sponsored by and...
