Documents? At this time she cannot open them with Word Perfect 12.
If she makes a document in open office, will she be able to open it
at her school in Microsoft Word? Thank you for a quick answer. We
are in quite the delimma here not wanting to spend $200 for the
cheapest student Mic. Office program. Thanks, cathy
Hi Cathy
In general the answer is Yes, except for the latest MS Office 2007
(docx, etc file types).
To open them at school in MS Office, she will have to remember to save
from OOo in MS format, as MS do _not_ support the ISO Standard files
used as default by OOo. Make sure also in the "Save" dialogue that the
"Automatic file name extension" is checked.
