| 386496 | 2005-09-06 14:31:00 | download a free legal viewer for just viewing and printing the documents MS's free Word 2003 Viewer downloadable here (www.microsoft.com) . Also, MS Word documents can be saved in various formats, some of which can be read, edited and printed in MS Wordpad, which comes free with XP Home. |

| 386498 | 2005-09-06 20:08:00 | Summertime, go to your local magazine shop, and check out the computing magazines. Often they will include free CD's and often on them will be programs like Open Office, that can replace Word. Just look through the mag untill you find a page listing the contents of the CD's. It saves you the hassle of downloading the program. | netchicken (4843) | ||
