   *Great site Sonny (I am guessing), problem is I can't really tell, almost all of it is in word format and I can't open any of it. I don't have any microsoft software (my computer came loaded with corel suite 8, wordperfect, quattropro, etc. over three years ago) and I can't even find the corel site anymore to try and find if there's an update to my wordperfect program. does anyone know if they're even in business anymore?

   *Is that a hint or reminder to send you that CD? I'll send it to you tomorrow. Geez, since my iMac is now sitting on a shelf with it's printer, maybe I should just sent that to you.

   *Not necessarily Sonny. I really would like to find an update but can't find their website. I honestly want to know if they're still in business. if they are I'm pretty sure they'd have an update that would allow me to open files from newer releases of software. then I'd be able to access more stuff from this site and others that have valuable business information.

   *Stevehttp://www3.corel.com/cgi-bin/gx.cgi/AppLogic+FTContentServer?pagename=Corel/Product/Details&id=CC1MSNDMYJDhttp://www3.corel.com/cgi-bin/gx.cgi/AppLogic+FTContentServer?pagename=Corel/Index This is the homepage. You can search under support to see if there are updates for your version.Also you might want to check out the Micro$oft web pages. I think that they have a free Word viewer availabe for download.You can also get the "free" StarOffice which is a MS Office compatable. But it is a 75 mB or more download. You can get it on CD rom for $40.http://www.sun.com/software/star/staroffice/http://www.staroffice.com/

   *Bill, Thank you very much. I had tried doing searches for corel but kept getting messages telling me that it couldn't be found. I must have been doing something wrong.

   *Steve:Microsoft makes a viewer for their office products. You can read the files but cannot modify them.Try this webpage and select the product you want a viewer for as well as "All versions". Make sure the "Converters and Viewers" box is checked and hit update list.http://office.microsoft.com/Downloads/default.aspx
