Has anyone got a Microsoft Office disk suitable for Windows Vista that my 76 year old mum could borrow so I can install it for her. She's just bought herself a laptop and new printer and can't wait to use them.

Thanks

Chrissie

Chrissie, seriously, Open Office is better, just download it free.

It looks pretty much the same as MS Office.

Not read the full thread but this sounds another case needing open office the free Microsoft compatible suite of programmes you can download legally for no money, zilch, no complications. Just put in your browser "Open office" follow the instructions and it's all yours.

OK I'll try that Mr. I. I've had a quick look at the tutorials on the web site and it does look pretty similar.

Thanks
