I have just purchased a copy of MSWORD 3.02 (yes) from the campus book store. Does anyone know what the difference is between 3.01 and 3.02? So far I can descern no difference. The cost was $49 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ | That government is best which governs least, because its people | | discipline themselves. | - Thomas Jefferson | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ | Mark Interrante CIS Department | | (904) 335-8047 University of Florida | | Internet: mfi@beach.cis.ufl.edu Gainesville, FL 32611 | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
