MS Office for Win-3.1 runs fine under WABI. (At any rate as fine as under
Windows).
I assume that whatever a Word macro woud do if Word were running under
Windows, it would also do if Word were running under WABI.
In fact, When "Word is running under WABI" Word is really running under
Windows which is running under WABI.
I've received a lot of Word files (which is why I run WABI anyway) but so
far have had the luck to avoid macro virus troubles, so I can't report
objective evidence about my assumption above.
(Maybe I shouldn't have said that).
Cheers,
Ted.
