You don't say what your current version is.

But if your operating system is Windows 98 or Windows ME check the packaging
to make sure that the new version will run on your computer. Word 2003 will
not. You should be able to pick up Word 2000 on eBay.

The Students and Teachers Version of Office 2003 is relatively inexpensive
and your son would qualify.
