Of course the othe side is that MS chooses to limit what platforms it makes MSO for while OOo does try to create a multiplatform app... It's only the work of others that make MSO possible on linux. The same might be said of OOo on Mac, perhaps... I'm a big supporter of crossover as it is a big help to small software makers especially. They don't have the resources to make multi platform apps, but with crossover they are less likely to need to. -- --------------------------------------------------------- Tim Fairchild Atchafalaya Border Collies.
