    I appears that the situation regarding the OP has now been resolved. Perhaps it would be an idea to close this thread or put it to bed in some way seeing as it has turned into something other than what the OP was intending and gotten a bit out off track?

    Just an idea, no point in flogging a dead horse, or whatever it is they say, whoever they are..

    If it is a fully compatible windows program as you say, why do more businesses not use it?

    Do you actually doubt weather it's a "fully compatible windows program"? It wouldn't even run if it wasn't fully compatible with windows.

    And why do businesses not use it? A stable Open Office was released years after Microsoft had already gotten a foothold into the market with a fully developed product. The fact that nearly all businesses run Microsoft’s operating systems means if feels more natural for them to also buy Microsoft’s applications. The power of advertising, lack of knowledge by a companies IT department, lack of trust in anything free. A whole range of reasons.

    The suggestion that nobody should mention OO as an alternative is stupid.
