microsoft word or works

[choc lover]

does anyone know where I can get microsoft word or works? cheaper the better!

Don't bother with Works - it is incompatible with a lot of other programs, unless it is solely for your own use and you don't intend opening documents from other people.

Try OpenOffice - it is as good as Office and is totally compatible, and best of all, it is free.

Unless you need Word for a particular purpose?

[choc lover]

no does't have to be microsoft, just for some college work.

doyou have a link for it?

and thanks for tip! word it is

Remember to save your documents in the .doc format, not the default. Then anyone with Word will be able to read it easily
