Its arguable if its worth bothering with the pre 2007 UI of Word and

Word 2007 or better? That'll be WordPerfect For Windows 6.1 then

Complex text manipulations were a piece of **** in WP6.1,
they took an age in anything else. Combine that with Lotus
123r5 and it was IMHO almost a perfect combination.

And so few felt that way that they didnt survive.

Ah, Word-Defect. I remember swearing at that.
