Why not just sell Word when it's all people need to work with at .
Why do people who just need to write letters with Word have to buy the entire
Office package? People who are not working in an office do not need the other programs that come with Office and it isn't right they are forced to purchase an entire package that's very expensive when all they need is Word. With Windows XP I am finding out it won't allow me to download my Office '97 and I am going to be forced to purchase the 2003 edition and this isn't right. When you don't have any use for all the other programs and already purchased a prior version of it I don't understand why Microsoft won't allow you to download the version you already invested into. XP will not allow me to fully install my Office '97 and I think people should have the right to make a choice if they want to upgrade to a newer version when they don't require it for just letter writing or saving some articles and other items from the Internet. If I had known this was going to happen to me I doubt very much if I would have upgraded to a newer computer and would have stuck with the one I had. All I was looking for was a little more memory space in another computer and didn't know it was going to lead to all these unwanted expenses because of a block that won't allow me to download Office '97. While you are at home just don't require to have Excel, Access and Powerpoint when all you are interested in doing is writing letters occassionally. I feel as if someone is putting my back up against a wall and forcing me to purchase something I don't need. It's not as if I am running an office from home that I need all that extra stuff and it would be very considerate if we are forced into purchasing a newer version of something it could be sold seperately and not as a package in order to avoid the high expense of buying the entire Office program.
