Doug -
Thank you for the update re WordPerfect. Being retired these last 12 years, a $ 200.00 version just makes o sense., though I (luckily) can afford it. Just makes no sense as I can't fully deduct it as a business expense. A $ 50.00 version sounds reasonable. I'll have to look in detail in to the differences between the two versions. I do need a fully functional spread sheet program integrated into the suite. No need for a presentation program or a database anny more. Again,, thank you for the tip.
