Hi There, I hope I'm not hijacking this thread too much. I was a beta tester for Office for the Mac. I don't have Office 365 that is offering the new version. My question is: Does the beta still work or will I need to wait when the Office product is released in the fall to use it again on the Mac? I did open Word, interacted with the document, but no text was inputted there. That's why I'm replying to this thread.
Thanks.
