snip......
With Open Office, are there seperat versions for
Windows and Linux, I know it will run in both, but just need to know if
I need to dowload another copy for use in Linux.
Yes. OpenOffice.org has been produced to run in separate versions for
Windows and Linux. So yes you will need to have another binary to run
under Linux. However you will find that all the Linux distributions have
it as part of their offerings on the CD/DVD.
Thanks for all the help so far

Hi Alan,
Just a tip for Oo as you are running it under windows and (hopefully
soon) Linux.... If you create a separate dos/win formatted partition to
hold your data files, these files can be readily accessed from both
platforms. Then if you create a file under linux and need to return to
windows the file is still readily accessible. Just watch the you use the
same file format under both systems.
