They make a small charge for this, which may vary depending on whether they also offer support. I cannot vouch for any of them, and Open Office does not endorse them but makes a page available for contact information. Here is the page: http://distribution.openoffice.org/cdrom/index.html#cdrom Other ways to get Open Office are perhaps on the cover CD with many computer magazines, although you may not get the latest version that way. Or you can try asking a friend with a faster connection to download it for you and put it on a USB stick or burn it to a CD for you. Just make sure (s)he has the same operating system. I'm assuming you have Windows, so get your friend to download the Windows version. It doesn't matter which version of Windows you have. Other users may be able to suggest other ways of getting Open Office. I suggest you join our mailing list - go to this page: http://support.openoffice.org/index.html and click on the word Subscribe beside the heading Users Mail List. In here you'll find lots of other users who try to help newcomers with using Open Office, everything from 'how do I start it' to more detailed technical questions. Good luck with Open Office. //James - To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@openoffice.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@openoffice.org

[users] RE: Need another program equivalent to Microsoft offering
Is there a version of Microsoft's Publisher available in the Open Office family of products? Will it open and save files in a version of Publisher? I would like to get if it is available, so if it is, I would appreciate knowing how to find it and obtain.

Only Publisher will open .pub files. There is a free Desktop publish program called Scribus which will do the same thing as Publisher. But I do not know how many other programs can read Scribus file formats. Dan - To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
