I was told by the Dell tech that I could download www.openoffice.org and I could get my Word opened. I do not have Word on this notebook computer but do have it on my desk top located in another state. I tried but will you send me to the exact page to download the program. Thank you, Ann Clark

That page is the correct one.  There is a green box on the page that says

"get
openoffice.org
version 2.3.1"

Click on that.  On the next page click on the long green box that says

"Download OpenOffice.org
Select your operating system and off you go!"

The names of several operating systems will appear. There will also be a box labeled "Include Java JRE with this download". Make sure that box has a check mark.

Click on the name of your operating system, which I'm assuming is Windows.

The next page will be an opportunity to contribute to the project. Since you haven't tried it yet, you're probably not interested, so skip that (I'm not saying you can't contribute) by clicking on the green box that says,

"continue to download"

Unless you have another system, you'll find it convenient to download to your desktop.

After you have downloaded the file with a name like

OOo_2.3.1_Win32Intel_install_wJRE_en-US

(it will have the extension "exe") you must run that file to unpack the installation files. You'll probably find it convenient to put installation files on your desktop, like the downloaded file.

Unpacking should also begin the installation process.

If you do not install immediately after unpacking or if the process is interrupted, you will need to look in the unpacked installation files for the file "openofficeorg23" that has an "msi" extension and run that installer program.
