| 1452986 | 2018-09-30 03:16:00 | I think that MS is starting to roll out Office 2018 . I'm on the Office preview channel and it just did and update and Outlook has different icons to the normal outlook 2016. Word and PowerPoint still look the same . The version number is Version 1809 build 1827.20138. | paulw (1826) | ||

| 1452988 | 2018-10-01 02:47:00 | Office 2019 just came out in the last few days :) Does that mean I get a free download of 2018? PJ |

| 1452989 | 2018-10-01 02:58:00 | Does that mean I get a free download of 2018? PJ There is no Office 2018. If you have Office 365 (subscription based) it will upgrade on its own, you would get a prompt saying there is a newer version available ( sometime) still not coming through yet. | wainuitech (129) | ||
| 1452990 | 2018-10-01 03:22:00 | 3 October is when I've been told. I found recently that my version of 2010 PowerPoint is deficient when playing audio (doesn't) on more recent versions. That has stirred me into action to buying a more recent version of Microsoft Office with Publisher which I use a lot. I regret the subscription based format, but can see this is the way the world is going. :( |

The problem will be though as you found out with office 2010, later on the older version may not be compatible with newer editions. With the subscription at least you are upto date all the time with what ever is current. Subscription actually works out quite cheap. If you have a 5 user, its approx. $33 / user/Year Single sub(personal) its around $110 ( from memory) Office 365 Which is basically the Professional version, outright purchase of Pro is over $700 and you cant upgrade it. |
