I was flying around on my computer today from program to program working on several projects when I reminisced about the times before I had an office suite. I remember only having Microsoft Word and having to use school or work computers for Excel and Access. The world was a lot tougher then... lol.
Then I thought, what if there's people out there that don't have an office suite. Or people like me that don't want to spend $500 for the next Microsoft Office business suite. OpenOffice has got the solution for you!
OpenOffice is a productivity suite that is available for FREE. It is an open source project so check back to their site regularly for updates. Just go to: http://www.openoffice.org/ and download. There are five main programs that come with OpenOffice:
- Writer - word processor. (MS Word)
- Calc - spreadsheets. (Excel)
- Impress - presentations. (PowerPoint)
- Draw - image editor. (PhotoDraw)
- Base - databases. (Access)
Hopefully this helps those of you that don't have Microsoft Office or just want another option. It is very simple to use. I believe OpenOffice is more user friendly than Microsoft Office. Enjoy!
