Hello, Please can you confirm something I am not quite sure about. You say OpenOffice is compatible with Microsoft Office but I wonder do you have to have Microsoft installed already or can OpenOffice work independently and if so I assume the compatibility means that it will for example be able to open, edit and save a .doc, .pub or .xls file.
To give you an idea of what I am looking for basically my PC went down and have and operating System disk so starting again and saving what files I can but have long lost my copy of Office 2003 Pro and licence key. I heard good stuff about your product and it sounds great but I would like to be able to access my old documents and then if necessary save them into your format going forward. Please can you let me know if this would work for me or if I do need Microsoft Office installed. If so I guess I will have to buy another copy but I will still download OpenOffice as it certainly looks and sounds good. Thank you for your time. Kind regards Sarah
