For years I used Word 97-2004 which came as part of the Office pkg (Excel,
Power Point, etc.). When it came time to upgrade the software again, I spoke
with the MacConnection people and they suggested that I didn't really need the
full office version but would just as happy with the Home Student Edition.
With the exception of the Word program, this is true.
If I buy only Mac Word 2008 - not the full Office version - will the files
created in the home/student of office 2008 update to the new full Word
software'? How about the old stuff created in Word 97-204? Will I have to
continue to run the student version of Word for the other programs (excel,
powerpoint, etc) to work?
I do not like the Home/Student Version of Word. I have had several question
and answer sessions with the support staff at Microsoft but they are unable to
solve the editing problems that exist with the student version that did not
exist in the old Word program. They have acknowledged there is a problem but
due to the constraints of the simpler version of Word my issue cannot be
resolved.
Thanks in advance.
beneficial if you could explain WHY you think WORD is different in these
versions. What are you having trouble with that you think another version of
WORD will fix? Yes, the output (documents created by) of any version of WORD
should be fully compatible.
