SpellCherkers aren't worth a shirt ya no

If I helped you, please tip my scales. If I have not, curse me out like
a drunken sailor

Don't listen to that dingbat ray.
Open Office will open many Office documents...but will ruin formatting
and other "incompatibilities".

I didn't say it was perfect. There will be some extremely complex
formatting that it won't quite make - but you'll still be able to deal
with it. For 'normal' operations, it will be quite sufficient.

If you're using Office just at home, get the Student edition...it's for
non-commercial use.
If your using it professionally, then it is worth the investment of full
blown Office.

I've yet, in my entire life, seen professional work done with Open
Office. OO is for kids.

No indication that the poster is doing 'professional work'. On the other
hand you haven't looked very far.

OpenOffice won't handle MS office macros - that's the biggest limitation.
IMHO the world would be a lot better off if macros were written for
OpenOffice instead of assuming everyone in the world is willing to pay a
few hundred bucks to deal with your 'valuable' information. At least
virtually everyone on the planet can have OpenOffice for the price of a
download. It runs on MS, MAC and Linux - MS office can't say the same.
