Re: [wlug] [Fwd: FW: Microsoft restrictions on EULA for Mobile Internet Toolkit]

Actually - we do, but it's huge, clunky, and it's Word doc type "compatibility" is a joke. A lot of people say that, and I always wonder if they've ever tried using it on a daily basis in a corporate environment. Plus, it's no fun trying to wean all the MS lovers (well, they like Office) here off of it!

Oh ok. I've not actually used it much. It seems to do an alright job of importing Excel spreadsheets (if you loose the Macros/formulars first). That is I use it for. That and the odd extremely simple letter type thing.
