Anyone: Is there any advantage to buying Microsoft Office, if you have all the separate components? If you already own them, no. But if you don't, it's cheaper to buy Office. rhet0ric

<<Anyone: Is there any advantage to buying Microsoft Office, if you have all the separate components?>> If by components you mean Word, Powerpoint and Excel, I think you have the basic shooting match. I think if you install MS office, it may link the dictionaries of Excel and Powerpoint to one centralized dictionary in the Word folder. But the dictionaries don't take up too much space, the only hassle is getting your custom word working on the same dictionary. This you can do manually by going into tools and pointing to the Custom Dictionary. -Bill_H
