Re: Open Office - A replacement program for excel - was Directory question - need input



yup, found that prog but at 93MB download on dialup, would probly take most
of a day to get it.
the phone has to used at some stage thru the day for various things so i'll
give it a miss for now, thanks anyhow.
<i can hear Paulette and Tiggs saying....so get broadband already, sorry
folks not gonna happen til the industry splits and there is no longer a
monopoly on our telephone service/internet connections so it will create
competition and
prices : unlimited-downloads drops. i'm sure thats no clear, oh well>

Jeanne, If you are interested in something LIKE excel - there is something
called "Open Office". Before I close I will hunt down a website for you.
It is a completely free program that can open and create windows office
things (like excel and word)

http://www.openoffice.org/

The program is associated with Sun Micro systems. I have used it and it
works well
