You don't say what you've done or what happens.  After you download the 
package from www.openoffice.org, you have to install it.  Did you do 
that?  In Windows, to install it, just double click on the downloaded 
file.  When it's installed, you'll want to use Writer to work on text 
documents.  Again, in Windows, there should be an OpenOffice.org folder 
containing icons for the various components, where you can select Writer.

Since you're learning specifically about Excel, probably not. If you 
were simply learning how to use spreadsheets, it would probably be OK.

Good news and bad news. The good news is that, Yes it is similar to MS 
Excel. Many of the functions and operations work in almost the exact 
same manner. Under the hood (things that are not obvious to the casual 
observer) the software operates in a decidedly different fashion. Calc 
was designed to work with spreadsheets in a very efficient manner but it 
can in no way be considered a clone of Excel.


The bad news is that I would not recommend using the OpenOffice Suite 
for someone trying to earn a specialist degree in Microsoft. Excel and 
Calc have too many things different in their methods and operation. You 
didn't mention what school you are attending but many of them offer 
Microsoft products at a student discount.


Best of luck in getting your degree!

 I am not sure where you went to download the file, but try
http://download.openoffice.org/2.0.3/. Click the box Download 
OpenOffice.org. Follow the directions. You will come to a page that 
mentions donations. At the bottom of that page there is a box labeled 
Continue Download. Click that box.
 You might want to also look at the bottom of 
http://download.openoffice.org/2.0.3/. There is a link to md5sum that 
you need to use to determine if the file you download matches the 
original file.

The most advisable could be not to use the e-mail from your company, but 
instead to download OO from the net (http://www.openoffice.org/). I 
would think the program is much too big to be accepted by an e-mail program.
