Hello.

As always please let me know what you think of it and if you find it useful. I would also appreciate feedback on this to improve it overtime.

Maybe change the file format from .doc to .odt? For the sake of being able to do reasonable version comparisons.

Off topic: I just finished a document with a 55+ pages table, using OOo, so I think OOo is pretty mature for production. And especially for what you need (i.e. technical documentation), I think the vesioning feature rocks. You can save several versions inside the same document, restore them all at once, delete them, compare versions, do a manual merge between an older version and the current state, etc. The versioning feature is actually one of the few very important reasons why I use OOo instead of Word, the others being the included free ppt-equivalent with diagramming features more like Visio and the extremely powerful PDF export. But there are other features too, which make it a product more useful to me than Word: smarter numbered and bulleted lists, better navigator, faster ops from the table toolbar, etc. The only thing I don't like is that it starts slower than Word, and also opens documents slower. But all in all, it seems the ppl developing it targeted it at other technical ppl, and it's a good product.

br,
