Click to See Complete Forum and Search --> : .Doc and .Xls... Oh no! RodNICE 08-15-2002, 12:56 PM Ok, I am on the precipice of installing RedHat7.3 on my machine but need to know one thing before I do... does there exist in the Linux world a free word processor that can read or save to .doc if I needed to? Any thing for spreadsheets also? PLEASE LET ME KNOW! jmclain 08-15-2002, 01:03 PM Yes, check out openoffice.org (http://openoffice.org). If you are using Gnome (http://gnome.org), abiword (http://abisource.com) supports word documents, and gnumeric (http://www.gnome.org/projects/gnumeric/)supports excell spreadsheets. If you are using KDE (http://kde.org), Koffice will support these as well. mdwatts 08-15-2002, 02:14 PM Actually OpenOffice (free) and StarOffice (not so free) as discussed quite often in these forums. I find searching the application database at freshmeat.net to be very helpful when trying to locate specific applications. mingshun 08-15-2002, 03:09 PM I have just written a "win2linux conversion" program webpage 1month++ ago for fun :p Hope it helps: http://www.geocities.com/lukmengs/linux/programs.html justlinux.com
