hello, im visiting family in Lincoln and this post is for a friend that needs some help, so i wont be able to reply as i wont be on the internet

she needs some help with her resume (CV) i have to go now, (helping run the family business) so she will ask the question... (see you in a few days)

Hi, is there anywhere that I am able to download a free copy of Microsoft Office Suite which includes the Microsoft Word package and Power Point??
Thanks.

To my knowledge there is no freeware microsoft WORDS availble......

There are however several very good freeware Office Suites that are avalible.........most are as good as M$ Words.........

Not freeware but worth a look is STAR OFFICE.....

there are others here who no doubt can offer suggestions

LOL...don't even ask how that WORD got next to your name...my keyboard is broke.............

When they fix some incompatibilities with the MS Office, this would be great!!!

 

For the average user it is a really good product... It can open and save as a MS Word Document, it also has the equivalent to MS Excel, Powerpoint etc...

Cheers

 

You right, but I have some doc's that doesn't open correctly in OpenOffice, but every new version of OpenOffice are correct some of them...

I hope that the OpennOffice 2.0 will have fully support...

I tend to see that issue in a differant light.........towit> M$ needs to fix MS OFFICE to work with other products........hmmmmm.....just maybe those other products are refusing to accept the spyware imbedded in MS OFFICE.....you know the one that places a traceable ID in all your MS OFFICE documents........

 

you can get a 60 day evaluation copy to ms office that has all the apps you ask about from ms here

in case that link wont work use this one http://www.microsoft.com/office/trial/default.mspx


or here http://www.microsoft.com/office/editions/prodinfo/standardtrial.mspx [this one prefered]

 

CAUTION: the below "TOOL" has not been tested by me.....use at your own risk


************************************



The Remove Hidden Data tool for Office 2003 and Office XP


http://support.microsoft.com/kb/834427


SUMMARY
The Remove Hidden Data add-in is a tool that you can use to remove personal or hidden data that might not be immediately apparent when you view the document in your Microsoft Office program.

You can run the Remove Hidden Data add-in on individual files from your Microsoft Office XP program or from your Microsoft Office 2003 program. Or, you can run the Remove Hidden Data add-in on multiple files at the same time from the command line. In either case, to run the tool you must have the program installed that you used to create the document.

************************


The above TOOL was not the one I had in mind.........if time allows...I'll try locating the other.....which is also made by M$............it scrubs each doc.

 

Hey Snowman,

Another scrubber is Javacools Doc Scrubber --> http://www.docscrubber.com/

or Javacools main DL page --> http://www.javacoolsoftware.com/products.html

It works extremely well.

Yep, a standard will be the solution, but until we haven't...
