 Still THE Best September 21, 2008
John N. Schear (Roanoke, Virginia United States)
I was an original Wordperfect user. Microsoft suggested that for the price of a Wordperfect registration page they would give me a copy of a brand new product called Word. Sure why not. Any thing free is better than paying. But, this was one fantastic deal. I liked the first version so well that I upgraded everytime through version 3. What I like most about this software is if you are the casual user, you can use it. If you are really smart ( a caterogy that eludes me ) you can do wonders with this massive program. When it comes time for a new computer setup it will be time for a new Office setup including the full version of Word et al.
GREAT PROGRAM, BUT YOU CAN GET IT CHEAPER July 1, 2006

Microsoft Word 2003 is a great word processing program, but I would strongly recommend the Student and Teacher edition. The Student and Teacher edition contains Word along with Exel, Powerpoint, and Outlook for about $120 AND you can install it on up to three separate computers.
 I like it May 8, 2006

I use Word with an all-in-one laser printer and can run scans, faxes and print from it. I have used it for several years in different veersions and I like it despite not needing all its features.
Excellent Product July 1, 2005

This is my first time using any MS Office Product. I found the installation to be a breeze. Product is working flawlessly. My wife really enjoys the spell checker. Recommend this to all as a step up from WordPad.

Still the best word processor for Windows. August 25, 2004
S Smyth (Belfast, Co Antrim United Kingdom)

Word is one of those products which has become a victim of its own success, and automatic features that are more annoying than the conveniences they were intended to be. Another issue is the almost non-existent backwards compatibility with previous versions, meaning that only the simplest layouts are likely to successfully transfer across versions. And it doesn't seem to matter whether you save as a rich text file (.rtf) or a previous version of Word.
To get around these problems, I switch all the auto-format features off, and ship anything that needs to be accurately conveyed as a .PDF (Adobe Acrobat), which Word is highly integrated with. Macros work okay, but are best written up in the macro editor. Text for use outside of Word is best saved as a plain Text file, and any formatting done within the destination application. Framemaker, for example.
Word is a good word processor and is not a DTP application to any useful extent. And used in its word processor mode, it does compare more than favourably with any alternative that I have tried. And that's quite a few. The font options and quality of rendition is particularly good. It's also a good idea to visit and subscribe to word tips, who have a huge amount of advice about Word in general and macros in particular.
All in all, there's not too much to complain about if the aforementioned is observed. Users requiring a more sophisticated product should consider Adobe's Framemaker.
