Microsoft Word doc files can be opened with little or no problem using OpenOffice. Some Microsoft doc files can not be opened at all, and some will lose formatting or other features of the original file as viewed with Microsoft Word. As Microsoft's doc format is a closed, proprietary format it is unlikely that this problem will ever be solved 100%, but OpenOffice does work well enough with Microsoft's doc format that it is adequate for most people's requirements. -- MELVILLE THEATRE ~ Melville Sask ~ http://www.melvilletheatre.com --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
