Being robbed of his PC, my fiance was more agreeable that I needed a PC of my own (so he can get back to gaming). Returning from his parents with his old PC I was back in business. I hate MS Works, so to avoid having to use it, I downloaded open office. Only problem was... now this story is in three formats. Luckily, Open Office is quite a bilingal program and happily opened the other files witout too much trouble.
My final dilema is.... it turns out, WeBooks prefers Ms Word for uploads. This wasn't a huge problem as I could copy and paste the text in and just had to format it afterwards - which in a way encouraged me to give the document a final proof before going live.
