Honesty forces me tu say that you dont need to download OpenOffice to be
able to produce a text that she is able to open: In WordPerfect you
can save as Microsoft format without any problem. Just click File ->
Save as and in the drop-down menu "Files of type" (or something similar)
you can choose the appropriate file-format.
This said, I encourage you to try OpenOffice 2.0, it is a very fine
office suite, I use it all the time (together with WordPerfect 12).
Kind regards,

Absolutely - I do it routinely every month. But you *must*
remember to "SAVE AS" a version of your assignment doc as an
MSWord file - Open Office Writer, like any other word processor
since the dawn of time, will default to saving it in its own file
format unless you give it different instructions. So you can't
just "SAVE" and hand *that* file to her - you have to "SAVE AS"
an MSWord file - note also that Open Office Writer will offer
you more than one choice of MSWord format, so you need to select
the one you think is closest to the one your instructor uses.
