[IBC] MSWord (totally OT)
In the latest versions of MSWord, what is the purpose of the little Mac
computer who stands in the corner of the desktop? He looks at me, looks at the toolbar, asks me what I want to look up, and when I run a spell-check he dances around and stands on his head. But he doesn't really do anything useful. Drives me nuts.

He's a friendly intermediary between you and the Help files. Thats
all. If he is the same as in previous versions you can turn it off by going to Help/Hide the Office Assistant. Hope this helps.

Just have a look at Open Office : http://www.openoffice.org
That's 100% compatible with word, excel and power point and it's totally free !! It's working on Windows, Linux and Max (and Sun solaris + freebsd). Julian |
