Yeah, I know. I struggled with it for many years, but eventually gave up with too many compatability issues - all my clients use Word and want their work in Word format and unfortunatly OO doesn't cut it.

On the other hand, as I just discovererd, MS can't maintain file compatability between different versions of Word, maybe I was too hard on OO.
