Hay All, I am having a terrible time with Word Perfect. It is constantly crashing. I use it to make up my advertising brochures and letterhead. Actually, I am trying to replace Office. It does not seem to matter when, it can be as soon as I open it, save something or insert a new picture or graphic. Any help you may be able to offer would be great.

Yikes, WordPerfect? I didn't think anyone but attorneys still used it! Try putting the CD in and select the repair option during install.

OMG...I used that in the early 90's. Buddy of mine from Arthur Anderson and I installed that on about 20 computers at a law firm. I fell thru the ceiling tile running network cables. Also used it making Box Labels
Steve..I may have some 5 1/4 Disk in my basement! You can have them.

Ha! Yup I use it. I have found arguing with MS Office tiring at best. I love that you can place the cursor where ever you like and it will do what you want. Actually, the same goes for inserting pictures and images. Maybe Office can do the same but I have not found how. Any way thanks for the input.

Ya Steve...I use to like it alot!
I don't know Word Perfect anymore. Actually, I have OpenOffice on my computer now. It's free, and it does what I need.

I mostly use OpenOffice too though I have Excel for heavy spreadsheet duties as I'm just used to the formulas.
