OK, I'm like way confused...  I've written bunches of stuff on my Mac+
at home using MS Word 3.02.  I've formatted the pages to look nice, neato
text and fonts - all that stuff that the Mac is great for.

So, instead of using my Imagewriter to print the stuff I thought I'd
use a MacII at work, which is hooked up to a LaserwriterII NTX.
Low and behold, I start up Word and open my documents and find that
the page layout is totally hosed up!  

So then I go to another Mac, this time a MacSE, on Appleshare (or what- 
ever the network is called) with access to a Laserwriter.  Guess what,
the document layout is still hosed up, big time!

Has anyone else experience this?  What am I missing! Why is MS Word such
a pain in the ass to use between Macs?  Is there something in the system file
that I'm supposed to be aware of?

And speaking of MS Word...  As a register user of MS Word I have yet to 
receive notification of how to upgrade to MS Word 4.0.  On the other hand,
I'm not sure I want to waste my money!
