sonjack2847 Posted February 9, 2018 Posted February 9, 2018 I don`t get much call to use Microsoft office but occasionally I have to.I have it it on my laptop but it is a hassle to hook that up to the printer.I didn`t want to pay out much money as I only use it about once in a blue moon.I went online and found a free download called softmaker software.I downloaded this and it works great and as far as I remember it does all of the things I did on Microsoft office a few years ago.So if anybody wants free office check these people out. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
manofthecoldland Posted February 9, 2018 Posted February 9, 2018 I am an infrequent user, so I use open office software named after a North American Indian tribe of the SW USA when I want to do a bit of memory writing. I don't know if its allowed to post the name here, so I won't, but free office software is available on line and works for my limited budget. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tukaram (Tim) Posted February 9, 2018 Posted February 9, 2018 I got MS Office Professional 2007 for free... so I have never upgraded. When I get a new PC I uninstall their promo (pay later) version and put mine on. It is old... but still works for everything I need. I do a lot of word processing, spreadsheets, and use Outlook as my mail handler. I am shocked they still do updates for it, considering how old it is. I do miss Front Page, for web design, but they dumped that many many years ago. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had office 2010 but I don`t know how to swap it over to the new computer, actually I didn`t know you could do that without an activation code.

I just use the installation disk. It is on like the 5th or 6th computer now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JDDavao II Posted February 9, 2018 Posted February 9, 2018 I use Open Office. I don't use any of it like I did when I was working but it seems to do the job. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
