Upgrade advice needed
Question: I currently have Microsoft Word 2002 SP3 (as part of Microsoft
Works Suite 2006) and want to upgrade to Word 2007. What is the best/cheapest way? Will an Office Word 2007 UPGRADE work? I'm not sure about the difference between Office Word and just plain Word. Are there good reasons to buy the "full" Office Word 2007 (for over $300 Canadian)? Thanks for any help :-) |

Upgrade advice needed
Word has been a part of the Office suite of applications for umpteen
versions now, and Microsoft has been calling it "Microsoft Office Word" off and on to emphasize this relationship. To see whether Works Suite 2006 qualifies for an upgrade to Word/Office 2007 (it does), see http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/pr...754511033.aspx -- Suzanne S.

Thanks Suzanne.
I see that it does qualify. One more question. is the Word 2007 that comes with the Microsoft Office Home and Student 2007 the same. The rpices are close, so I was wondering if it would be smarter to get the suite. "Suzanne S.

Upgrade advice needed
[Sorry for the delayed reply; I inadvertently sent this to email the first
time.] Yes, the app will be the same. The only caveats about the Home & Student Edition are these: 1. It doesn't include Outlook. 2. It is not eligible for an upgrade to the next version. 3. Every document will say "Not for commercial use" in the title bar. If you can live with those restrictions, it is probably your best bet. -- Suzanne S.
