| | RE: Create a form that can be e-mailed This forum won't let me start a new post-I can only reply to existing ones-so I pick one that is similar to my question. My Vista came with a free 60 day trial of Microsoft Office 2007. It says if I want to send someone anything I have written in Office 2007 I will have to send them a file conversion kit if they don't have Office 2007!? What a nuisance. Presently if I open an attachment I receive it opens in Office 2007. Later if I don't subscribe to Office 2007 will I need a conversion kit to view things I have written in Office 2007? I don't know if I need Office 2007 as Vista comes with Notepad and Wordpad.

| | Re: Create a form that can be e-mailed I use Adobe's LiveCycle Designer to create forms. Although expensive, I find it easier and more flexible than Word.

| | Re: Create a form that can be e-mailed You don't *have* to send them the conversion utility...but in order for them to open your Office 2007 document, they will have to get and install the utility from somewhere (it's available from MS' web site). But if you already know you will be sending documents to people without Office 2007, it would be easier for everyone involved to simply save your document in "Word 97-2003" format. Then you don't have to worry about the conversion utility and you also won't have to worry about your own documents should you decide not to purchase Office 2007 after the trial period. Your other comment "Presently if I open an attachment I receive it opens in Office 2007"...that is how it's supposed to work. And lastly "I don't know if I need Office 2007 as Vista comes with Notepad and Wordpad"...you have to decide that for yourself. If Notepad and Wordpad works for you, then great...you don't need Office 2007. If that is your line of thinking, you might want to consider one of the free Office-compatible applications such as OpenOffice. Go to www.openoffice.org and check it out.
