Default ??? What's the point to Word 2003?

You'll often find me on your side of the argument. Not this time.

The big news is XML.

Do a bit of googling around the net and read some good introductory
material on XML, otherwise you risk being seen as sadly out of date
and behind the times at work :-) Of course, this will only matter on
payday, but on payday it will really matter!!

Cheers

Good lord -- can't we ever get to a point where we can leave well

2000 works just fine.

As far as I can tell, these newer versions just have more garbage you
have to turn off in order to keep Word working for you, not against
you.

Rant.
