Hello Wes Sir;
As a person that is/was required to have MS Office to do his client
work, I can safely say that over 99% of the things that I had to do
using MS Office, I now do with OpenOffice.org. I currently use version
3.0.1, but I have used it for many years. I was using 1.x till 2.x came
out and then upgraded to 3.0.0 this past October.
The one "funny" thing I have found is that OOo 3.x.x reads the .docx
format better than MS Word 2003 with the MS file format compatibility
pack add on. I encourage everyone to not use the .docx format and stick
with the more standardize .doc format. That said, I encourage everyone
I deal with to not Use MS Office and switch to the FREE alternatives that
is OpenOffice.org.
I wonder how well MS Office, with Sun ODF plugin, compares with how well
OpenOffice works with ODF files? Also, there are many other apps that
support ODF, particularly in the Linux/Unix world.
I have tired the ODF plugin for MS Office, but it is not that good.
Compared to using OOo, or MS with the ODF plugin, I choose OOo
everytime.
If you only have MS Office and need to use ODF, then it is "ok", but
not a great solution. Does not work well, but it is better than
nothing.
