OOo can save in MSO 2003 XML format no problem. It's listed, just right down the bottom. The .doc format in 03 is the same as 2000/XP In fact OOo is more compatible, because MSOffice '95 can read doc files created in OOo.... which is, in fact, the reason I changed to StarOffice 5 all those years ago! :) Cheers Yo -- "GET LEGAL - GET OPENOFFICE.ORG" http://why.openoffice.org ISO 26300 compliant Graham Lauder, OpenOffice.org MarCon (Marketing Contact) NZ http://marketing.openoffice.org/contacts.html INGOTs Assessor Trainer (International Grades in Office Technologies) www.theingots.org.nz --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
