I though that was the case. Thanks for confirmation.

You've reached a mailing list populated by volunteers. To take up the question of a refund I would guess you'd need to contact the credit card processor. As for the offer of Wordperfect Office for $12.95 I would be suspicious of that. I know Corel has special offers from time to time but I can't say I ever recall them offering WPO for less than about $90 and I've been on their mailing list almost since they acquired Wordperfect from Novell. Also, OpenOffice is *free*. We are very pleased that you chose to donate but the product *is* free to download and to use on as many computers as you like in as many different contexts as you like - personal, business, education etc. etc. You are also free to give it to others to use under the same conditions. Support is also free via this mail list run by users of OpenOffice who donate time to help other users. There are other free support groups, blogs & forums on the internet. Documentation is also free via the web site <www.openoffice.org> although there are specialist books for sale should you need them. Forwarding to unsubscribed OP. -- Harold Fuchs London, England Please reply *only* to [email protected]
