A friend of mine has asked me for recommendations for a VERY EASY TO LEARN AND USE word processor for his wife. She has just learned to put a disk in the drive and is having trouble with the word processor that came with their PC-clone (some word processor I've never heard of). I use Wordstar 2000 and am very happy with it, but I am not certain that it is easy for a novice to learn. I would like to take a survey from the net for easy to learn and use word processors. Please respond by email and I will post a summary and tally of the votes. Thanks in advance. -- Bob Jackson (rdj@ttrdf) 312-982-3578 AT&T Information Systems Computer Systems Division, 5555 Touhy Ave., Skokie, IL 60077 PATH: ...!ihnp4!ttrdf!rdj

> A friend of mine has asked me for recommendations for a VERY EASY TO LEARN > AND USE word processor for his wife. My wife and our Spanish foreign exchange student have loved WordPerfect. The lessons that came with it were easy for them to do (I skipped them), and they feel comfortable with it. My wife had previously given up on PCWord, the shareware program. She couldn't seem to learn how to use it. -- AT&T o o 303-538-5004 Don Stanwyck || ihnp4!drutx!stanwyck Denver, CO USA \__/ Telecom Standards

I have been using WordPerfect for over a year, it is robust, yet easy to learn. WordPerfect 5.0, due out eminently, will be close to a desktop publishing system, yet I gather the same as using a word processor (it will be compatible with WordPerfect 4.2, the current version). I think you can't go wrong with WordPerfect.
