Thanks, Dan. I’ll have to dig into it a bit. I don’t like Windows Mail nearly as well as I like Outlook. I guess 10 years of habit is hard to break....
No Excel on this computer either - it’s MS Works, which really is fine. I have plans to get a REAL laptop in the near future, but I really don’t want to spend unnecessarily in today’s economy. A good laptop equals a lot of meals.
Microsoft 2010 Beta. It's a free download with a time bomb that will expire in the future when the released product comes out. When that happens, they will most likely have a 60 day trial of the non-beta that you can download.
Viola, you have Office freely and legally for the next few months, if that's as much time as you need.
