 I'm sure it will be
 legal to send you. It's about 9 MB (starting with
 3.0) and this will work.

3.5 with a patch to 3.5e was the final version. Corel
hasn't
had it on their site for ages, but it's out there on
the web.
There's a ton of document templates and other files
for it,
I downloaded them all from Corel before they got rid
of
them.

What you can't use WP 3.5e for is HTML. It can create
an
HTML document with formatting etc, but you better get
it
right the first time. I tried a simple page with some
tables,
saved it then later when I re-loaded the document all
the
formatting was trashed. It opened fine in any web
browser,
but WP couldn't read what it had just saved a few
minutes
before. For everything else it can do, it's fine.

It will be total Fandemonium!
