With Word, the de facto WP program across the business world?

Let's see (from those who *really* know).


Are you really saying that LibreOffice cannot track changes in a text
document?

No?

And that

https://help.libreoffice.org/Common/...ecting_Changes

is a lie?

No?

NB I use MS Word and have done since the 1980s but LibreOffice is IMO an
adequate application for most who don't want to shell out.

Quite, but that wasn't what we were talking about. We weren't talking
about what might be considered 'adequate' for a home users but what is
considered 'essential' for a business user.

So, if a Word user can email a OO/LO user and that user continue to
track changes then OO/LO have moved on. ;-)

I can see why you snipped your original comment:

"And Word can Track Changes, again important in many organisations."

Why, did you actually think many organisations ran OO/LO and would be
just tracking changes between themselves?

I'm not a secretary so don't (and never have) used any WP past a very
basic level, I'm just going by those people who have tried to use
OO/LO in a commercial / serious environment and who have had to give
up on it.

I've generally found only only narrow-brained, arrogant pricks think
that only "secretaries" use document processing software beyond basic
levels.

Aw bless, another one who can't spot humour ... I hadn't included you
in with the binary left brainers but now ...

I'll make sure I put a smiley on there next time, so you aren't
confused. ;-)
