[QUOTE="Henry, post: 1176733, member: 158"] I'll be the unaplogetic fanboy in this thread who loves Word, hates Wordperfect, and has the EXACT opposite experiences from the previous posters. If I could get the darned stragglers and holdovers in my organization to switch from Wordperfect/Quattro over to Word/Excel, I'd be one happy camper. I've had ten times the corrupted files in Wordperfect 8/9 than I have in Word 97/2000/XP. I can count many days I had to open a WP file, copy all the text and images, open another WP file, paste them there one at a time, and figure out which chart/image/graphic clipart was crashing the system. For both stability, crash recovery, and overall look and feel, I choose Word over WP any day - this coming from a guy who cut his computing "teeth" on Wordperfect 5 for DOS. :) [/QUOTE]
