Hello,
My brother told about Apache Open Office and I am thinking about installing
it, but I have a few questions. I tried your Forum, but it was very
confusing to me and I didn't see the question I have anyway.
I currently have Microsoft 365 installed on my computer and I pay $6.99 per
month to rent the license for this program. I am able to view my current
documents in Word, as well as create new documents. My main question is,
after I install Apache Open Office, does it override Microsoft 365? In
other words, will I still be able to view my current Microsoft Word
documents, as well as create new documents in the same format, using your
program? Is your format compatible with Microsoft Word and other Microsoft
Office programs? Do I have to Un-install Microsoft 365 to use Apache Open
Office?
Please get back to me as soon as possible, since I am trying to avoid making
any more future payments of $6.99 to Microsoft.
Thank you,
Cheryl Smith
I haven't used Microsoft 365, but from what I've read elsewhere it uses
the same file formats as Microsoft Word. If that is true, then Apache
OpenOffice should be able to open files created in Microsoft 365, i.e.
*.doc, *.xls, etc.
