I've been using a Linux desktop five years. Office/excel etc are no
problem especially since OpenOffice. Later versions of Win and
Loutlook wrap things in a MS "tnef" attach which is a Microsoft
EE&E (embrace, extend, extinguish) tool. After some digging I did found
two options to deal... you can pay for a licensed version of Evolution
which has or you can save the attach and use a standalone tnef tool.
Been using the latter... haven't taken the time to figure out how to
integrate it into Evo yet. A pita but it works.-- TWZ On Tue, 2004-04-06 at 11:14, Henry Schaffer wrote: > Gregg C Levine writes: > >... one of the members of the KDE desktop software kit insists it can > >read, and write to those documents prepared by Microsoft. ... > > I routinely use Open and/or Star Office on Linux and Win2000 to read > Microsoft documents (Word/Exel/PPT).
