Hi Subhashish, You can use OpenOffice.org for working with Microsoft specific documents, you can open it to edit and save the documents (Though it may not be able to provide as many features as MS Office has got, but to 90% it complies with MS Office for basic working), or you can even install a Wine Emulator which emulates Windows on Linux, So with this software Opening up a MS Office is not a big task.
>Secondly I also need pst migration from msoutlook to Thunderbird. To Migrate from Outlook to Thunderbird (this works in Mozilla too) 1) Install and configure Thunderbird normally 2) Launch Thunderbird email 3) Select Tools/Import then select Address Book then select Outlook and wait for Finish 4) Select Tools/Import then select Mail then select Outlook and wait for Finish 5) Exit Thunderbird 6) Used Windows Explorer to select and move all of the mail files/folders (that were imported) up one directory level above the "Outlook" folder they were placed in. These files/folders can be found in the directory shown as the Local Directory for Local Mail (Tools/AccountSettings/LocalFolders). If you have followed our conventions this should be c:\data\email. 7) After moving all files/folders, delete the now empty "Outlook" folder 8) Launch Thunderbird and verify folder content etc. 9) Cut and paste the migrated the individual address books into the Personal Address Book and deleted the individually migrated address books With regards, Manohar Gujja On Dec 10, 2007 4:30 PM, Subhashish <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Hi All > > Few days back I have decided to migrate from Windows Xp to Ubuntu-Linux.
