Wow. I can tell you're not a WORD mvp...
Methinks www.openoffice.org is better than WordPerfect!

Your IP address suggests that you are in the UK, possibly in or around the
Sheffield area, and maybe even using Force9 ISP assuming they still
exist..
there is a PC World computer store at the following address..

Meadowhall Retail Park
Attercliffe Common
SHEFFIELD
South Yorkshire
S9 2YZ
Tel: 0870 2420444


or go to this site for the store finder in the event that I have your
location all wrong (most likely)..

http://www.pcworld.co.uk/

If price is a first consideration, you may also want to look at
WordPerfect
Office and Lotus Smartsuite.. as I remember, PC World stock all of them..
well, certainly five years ago.. :-)

I have XP Home in which I am using an old version of Word 97 which I
loaded
from an old disk. It works fine still, but I have a couple of
questions --

1) Would I find much benefit in buying the latest Word?

2) If so, is this site selling genuine copies?
http://1bj.biz.allsofte.com/ They keep on emailing me!

3) or would it be safer to buy from the MS site?


Many thanks
