so, does it open office97 docs? esp powerpoint/excel/word? how about office98? i don't have time to dick with it right now... btw, it appears that two folks have bought campus licenses for star office, so anyone living/working on campus can mooch off of them (CS and CSR (that's space research)). when i figure out how to do it officially i'll tell the list, since there are a lot of folks at my dept who want it functional without having a 150M install dir in their homedir. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Send administrative requests to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
