My dad may have a copy, he only recently joined the Word faithful. Apparently the California Legal system required WP to read or edit docs on & off the net, as recently as 2 years ago. Do you know any CA lawyers?\nMy personal opinion is that Word Perfect was hardly "life", as it was so klunky and hard to use. Hav you loked up "wordstar", I seem to remember using that app & it was MUCH more friendly than WP.\nPlenty of mac users were using a Word-like product years before Windows 3.1. \nAlso, check out http://stanford.edu/~bkunde/fb-press/articles/wdprhist.html

Dwight is mistaken. You can have it work the way you want.\n\nOpen Word\n\nOn the top bar select TOOLS, OPTIONS, Select the edit tab, check the "Typing Replaces Selection" box.\n\nThat will fix it.

i think you dont have microsoft word installed on your computer. Install it and try again(most stable one i found was office 2000). if there are still problems click on your file then press shift+right click on the file, you get a menu, select 'open with' and click  wordpad inthe list of programs you see.hope it helps! :)\n\n\nCheers!

Press Ctrl+I to see if that works. If not save your work and restart MS Word.

Try Open Office instead.  It does all of the same things that Microsift Word does, and it's completely free!\n\nhttp://www.openoffice.org/

You have the trial version site. You need o go to the freeware site. I have downloaded version 7.5 3 times this week. Be sure and uninstall the old version before installing the new.\n\n\nhttp://free.grisoft.com/doc/2/lng/us/tpl/v5

I think the only problem here is that the writer of the info file did not use a spell checker. The second step should be to run the setupreg in the AOM folder. The third one should be to run the setup.bat file. Just double click on the first file, which is most likely a registry entry file, and it would popup a box. Click yes and that should be done. For the second file just double clicking on the file should work.\n\nEnjoy!!

Can you still access it through Tools/Language/Thesaurus ?\nIf you can, the keyboard shortcut may be changed...\n\nIf not, you probably need to re-install

Seriously, if you're  a Microsoft office user, you should use Microsoft Office 2007 when it's released.  Otherwise, use Wordperfect X3.  You won't waste your time to master another office just because one has one or some good functions than other.\n\nHowever, if you want to compare:\nhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WordPerfect\nhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Office_2007

If you want something similar, a free word alternative like OpenOffice.org should help. (The .org is in the name probably so people know where to get it.) It includes a spell checker, and is open-source (and thus free)

It seems that in your class they don't have the latest version of Word.  You are probably working with Word 2003 and they are still with Word 2000.  You will have to install a Word 2000 to get it work like you would like to.  The new version will always show you the wizard.  If the merge is already done, and you just want to make some changes try closing the Task Pane and view only the Mail Merge toolbar (View - Toolbars - Mail Merge).  Good luck!
