I've never had stability problems with the version of Office I have (XP). Seems to work fine for me. However, this interests me. Honestly, the number of people who just love making programs and giving them away for free (likely to build a reputation so they can get hired by a nice company) is really growing. I love it myself.
Anyway LL, I'll read about the product at the site, but from your experience, feature-wise, how does this stack up with Office XP? If you haven't tried XP, then how does it compare with whatever is the latest version you have used? (Actually, I think there's a newer version than XP, but you know.) If it's got a richer feature set, I may just ditch office, except for publisher, and go with this. Just out of curiosity, is the reason they don't have publisher support (and thinking of it, this may be answered on that site :D) because they either just haven't gotten around to it yet, or due to some legal thing?

"On two occasions, I have been asked [by members of Parliament], 'Pray, Mr. Babbage, if you put into the machine wrong figures, will the right answers come out?' I am not able to rightly apprehend the kind of confusion of ideas that could provoke such a question." ~ Charles Babbage (1791-1871)
