Oh, that's good news. I'm having a heck of a time of it. |

Well what’s the worst that can happen.
You may lose a few quid.
You won’t get any support.
The Key may suddenly expire.
It opens a virus trap door.
It crashes your hard disk.
Then again it may just do what you want to do.

Then again it may just do what you want to do. I've been warned!  I'll not go for the very cheap one and hope the one i buy does what I want it to do. Anyway Ken I'm going upstairs to check the image file in Lulu. I'll let you know if it worked. |

LibreOffice works on Windows systems and it's free.

A current version, legal copy of MSOffice Home and Business runs $249. The Pro version is $449 or so.
I doubt very much that what you get for under $5 will feel like a bargain in the end.

LibreOffice works on Windows systems and it's free. I have that Cameron. However there were a few features on MO that I liked. I may chance one that's a bit more expensive. I bought a Dragon from ebay and it works a treat. |

Thanks Ken that's probably safer. My husband joked that the very cheap ones were only offering the empty box. |

WOW! If that is a legitimate price, Ken, it is a bargain!
I just bought a new Dell computer in recent weeks and the Office package was $249.

Thank you Ken, I think I'll go for the windows 10 version for £49.99. I have messaged the seller and await her response. |

I was about to buy one, but have decided to carry on with Libre Office. Thanks all.

I decided to buy this for my daughter, who needs MO for a course she's taking. I paid the money and downloaded it to my daughter's laptop. Then followed a nightmare as we attempted to get it working. We were convinced that we had been scammed. Anyway in the end we contacted my son in California. Usually he has so much work we don't like to bother him but luckily he was on holiday. He downloaded something which allowed him to connect with my daughter's laptop and he unravelled our mess. The programme works perfectly/ Thanks Ken. |

I’m pleased for you. Computers and software can be so frustrating. Even after 60 years working with them at so many levels I still encounter challenges. I should have stuck with killing people  |
