Re: [LUG] Running Word under VirtualBox 4.3.10

 

Hi Phil and Bad

Thanks for the replies. The wine and office option is a good one. I
wish I could mandate use of odf/doc format. I work with an
organisation who has deemed that it is not possible to open a document
saved via open office or libre office. They are heavy handed and I was
hoping to avoid some sort of battle with them. I might decide that the
battle needs to take place!

Thanks for all the help.
