Not bad but it's not office97 I don't know for sure as I've heard they
plan to make StarOffice able to read and write into Office97 formated
files? Which is "The standard" weather anyone likes it or not. Many
people take it for granted that people can read MSWord formated
documents and other office generated data files...
