[DM-MUG] need fast answer if possible...ref Word

[Jeremy Geerdes]

Will it open in NeoOffice and/or OpenOffice.org? Their ability to read Word docs, in my experience, is a bit stronger than that of Pages. If you don't have NeoOffice, I could try it on mine. I'll just be in and out all day, so it might take a bit of time for me to respond.
