My response is still "Oh Dear" I remain to be convinved that the
leopard has changed its spots and can introduce a new version with out
introducing a whole host of new errors as Corel usually does.
Someone has said in defence of WP for Linux that Corel didn't program
it. Bit hard to tell the difference really.

Can not say I agree with the new version every six months mentality
that is rapidly taking over linux. I guess that is why me wife still
uses WP5.1 and I still use WP6.1. Books, posters, mail merge, boiler
plating, equations, etc still all possible.
