If the G3 had usb support -- ie a usb keyboard and mouse you can run
OSX 10.3 or earlier -- if it is older than that then I would install
Yellow Dog Linux version 3.whatever. You will be able to dual boot
the mac into either OS 9 or Linux, run open office under linux and
they is a fairly decent mac emulator called Mac on Linux that is part
of the package, and will allow you to run many mac programs in an OS
9 window with Linux running.
The other, much simpler, choice would be to run MS office on your OS
9 machine and save your neo office docs as MS office. If you are
running into formatting issues with that now, I would guess that you
need to make sure the fonts match on both machines.
Have fun!

To whom it may concern:
My name is David Coughlin. I am a professor at Kyushu International
University in Japan. In my home I have a new iMac and I use Neo
Office
software. I like this software very much and use it almost daily. Mt
problem is that in my office at the University I have an old Mac
G3, which I
believe will not accommodate system X.
I want to find a version of Neo Office that I can use in system 9,
so that
both computers can read my floppy disks etc., and things like my
column
separations will come out the same on both computers.
Can you help me?
Sincerely yours,
David A. Coughlin
