But did you try Open Office from www.openoffice.org?
I know that table formatting may be troublesome so the bottom line is to keep trying.

Hi, I could do with some help from the experts.
My problem is with putting tables next to each other and wrapping text around them.
So far I have been using Word 97 and discovered that this can't do it.
Somewhere I read that Word 2000 could do it, so I promptly went onto ebay and bought, what I thought would be Word 2000, but I got "Works 2000" which gives me " Works Word Processor " which doesn't even seem to give me the same facilities as I got from Word 97.
The paperwork that came with the CD indicates that Word 2000 and Money 2000 should be on the same CD, but I cannot find either.
Now my questions are : Should Works 2000 contain Word 2000 and if not, how can I get hold of a program that will deal with tables in the way I want to use them.
Sorry if this sounds idiotic to you but I am still a beginner when it comes to these things.
Many thanks for your help.
PS I am using XP, but also have an old PC with 98SE
