OO vs. Office? Thread Tools Search this Thread Display Modes
Prev Previous Post   Next Post Next
If you use outlines or make lists a lot, OO is fantastic. Word is a terrible outliner (Notebook view is a modest improvement). It was designed not to outline, but to create a hierarchy that would be turned into a written document. For quickly bashing out notes, OO will be faster and easier.

Plus it does lots of other stuff. Columns, drop downs, styles, etc. Great list keeper.

OTOH, it's a bear to get OUT of OO and into Word to MAKE that structured document when/if you decide you need to.

SIGH. It's never easy, is it?
