I am using the above on trial, as Iam finding that a growing number of mail Iam receiving, is sent using this format.

I have received a number of emails from microsoft, asking if I want to buy this newer format, which is going to cost me around £60.00.

Does anyone know if there is anyway that I can get this for less?
I am sure that someone mentioned that they had this package saved to a memory stick, and uploaded their's for free!!

Cheers

That is the correct price for it.

You could try downloading this which is free, and you can read word etc with it -
