Well yes you can Joe. But perhaps it's worth reminding you that you can only download as *trial* software. So then you send the OP the link (why I don't know), they download it & run it for awhile, and then come back here asking "how can I open these MSO documents in MSO 2007 .xdoc etc., that I've created now that the MSO trial has run out?". I see *no* reason to send anyone off to a MS trial software site, do you? I suppose that we could answer PDF questions by sending folks off to Adobe's Acrobat trial link, or as we (tinw) seem to do for Publisher questions by immediately sending them off to Scribus without even asking what they are trying to do in Publisher that perhaps OOo can easily do (oft times better). After all, this is an *OOo* users list, why should anyone here take the time to refer an OP to a MS *trial software* link? --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
