 I'm sure it will be

 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!

Microsoft Word

2005-03-31 Thread Gretchen Summers
My college-age daughter was trying to prepare a report using a
template in Microsoft Word.  She typed a couple of paragraphs, and
suddenly word crashed with fatal errors.  She was somehow able to
recover what had been typed, but when she tried to save it, it again
crashed with fatal errors.  She tried to create a new document with
the same results.

I am a Mac person, and I know if I had this problem with my Mac, I
would suspect a corruption in the application.  I would uninstall the
program and all it's components, and reinstall.  Is this the proper
procedure with a PC (running XP)?  If not, what needs to be done to
fix this problem?  Obviously, she needs MS word to prepare papers for
school.  Thanks in advance for your help.

The latest teacher/student version.  It would be nice to repair it. 
How is that done?

 Uninstalling and reinstalling it should work.

When you run Setup, it has options to remove, modify
or repair. If you modify or repair, you'll need to
re-apply any patches or updates.

It will be total Fandemonium, Summer 2005!
