Editorial Review:
Whether saying "no" to Microsoft's hegemony or recognizing the Corel tradition of sleek and powerful software, users choosing WordPerfect Office 2002 Standard Edition can take pride in their choice. The core suite includes WordPerfect 10, the Quattro Pro 10 spreadsheet program, Corel Presentations 10, and the CorelCENTRAL 10 personal information manager (PIM); each of these meets or exceeds the qualities of their competitors.
Accessories like the Pocket Oxford Dictionary and Corel's Application Recovery Manager make life easier for users and administrators alike. The advanced voice recognition software and microphone help eliminate the risk of repetitive stress and improve one's diction simultaneously (mumblers need not apply).
Pretty much every file type we've ever heard of can be imported and exported, so longtime users of other software should have a relatively seamless transition. The look and feel will be familiar to users of Microsoft Office, though quirks in hot keys, commands, and toolbars will take a few days to master. This might be the only reason not to switch from Microsoft--inertia can be difficult to overcome and novice users may resent learning new tools. However, the strengths, including Adobe PDF publishing, Microsoft's VBA scripting, Web compatibility, and networked file sharing, should convince most open-minded users to consider the merits of WordPerfect Office 2002. --Rob Lightner--This review refers to the Professional Edition

Rating:  - The best wordprocessing package in the World!
Wordperfect is the best word processor in the world. I am not one of those nut-cases who doesn't know how to use anything else. I am very good at dozens of wordprocessing packages, I have been forced to use many of them. Wordperfect is more user friendly, more powerful. I can get my work done much faster. It is easier to do special formatting and make things look exactly like you want. Then, you can save it as a PDF without any extra software! This may not be a big deal, but wordperfect files ...

Rating: - I love this program
I took classes in Wordperfect 8 and word. Wordperfect is better hands down. I have upgraded to 9 and I now have the full version of 10 with dragon. It has never crashed on me. I have a sony computer that came with 10 because it works so well with xp. I bought the whole version and I will not use word. It is to slow and is terrible for mail merge. The problems that these people are having is becuse they do not know how to use the program. I am also surpised that amozon does not say that it works with ... Read More

Rating:  - DOES NOT HANDLE WELL
I HAVE AN OEM VERSION OF OFFICE 2002 STANDARD EDITION AND I AM HAVING NOTHING BUT PROBLEMS. I CONSTANTLY GET A MESSAGE STATING THAT WORD PERFECT (10) OR QUATTRO PRO HAS ENCOUNTERED A PROBLEM AND NEEDS TO CLOSE. IF I WAS IN THE MIDDLE OF SOMETHING THE INFORMATION I WAS WORKING ON MIGHT BE LOST. I HAVE DOWN LOADED SERVICE PACK 3 AND HOT PATCH 4 AND I AM STILL HAVING PROBLEMS. IS THIS BECAUSE I HAVE AN OEM VERSION OR WHAT? SHOULD I BUY A NEW PROGRAM OR GO UP TO VERSION 11?
Rating: - Star Office is much much much better
I tried to do a 500 name mail merge with Word Perfect and my computer crashed. And crashed. I paid their customer service to try and fix it, and the problem got worse, and they really didn't want to spend any time helping me. I wasted about 50 hours of time to try to get it to work, and finally gave up (I work in technology...) This use to be the most awesome software for word processing. Not anymore. Star Office is a dream, and I was so happy to switch to that.
