Article Excerpt
After what seems like months of waiting I finally received my copy of the latest version of Microsoft Office, specifically Microsoft Office Professional (2003). The Suite comes in at least three configurations, and purports to be the latest and greatest in everything you might need to run your office. It isn't, however, specifically designed for the law office.
[What's In It]
The base versions of Office Suite 2003 come with the 2003 versions of, in alphabetical order, Excel, Outlook, PowerPoint and Word. Excel, of course, is the electronic spreadsheet, Outlook, the E-mail / Calendar / Contact / desktop program, PowerPoint, the presentation creation and display software and Word for processing words.
