I am new to MAC.  I have two users on my machine, and I installed
Office for Mac while user 1 was active.  All Office programs will
launch as promised.  When I try to access Office under user 2, none of

I have a iBook G4, configured to use number formats for Mexico, that
is, using a comma for thounsands grouping and a dot for decimals. I
have the Office Mac Student Teachr Spanish CD. However, inside Office

In Excel, this is annoying when attempting to do command-z, but

Many Mac users have experienced problems with Office 2004, where Office
applications display a series of dialog boxes at launch stating that

I'm about to buy my first Mac--dual core, either portable or desktop.  As  a
longtime Windows user I'm just wondering about the many Office files I have
on my current system.  Will they, basically, be "readable" on the Mac

I am using an iBook with OSX 10.4.7.  I have MS Office on here.  I just
looked to see what version, Microsoft Word X Service Release 1.  When I
type a letter, I get through the Date, I get through the address block,
and then that  annoying little animated icon pops up and says ...

How do you print the row and coloms lines without have to print the

In Excel, I need to assign values to a text cell.

Any idea when MS Office/Mac will be written native to the new Macs with

This is my 2nd request for help.  The Microsoft AutoUpdate.app keeps
doing its thing downloading and installing the latest Office update.
Where or what file does it check to see if you really need the update?
The update has been installed and all of the Office apps are working

My father-in-law has an iMac he purchased last year.  The 30-day Office Test
Drive has long expired and he's now contemplating purchasing Office 2004.
