   Hmm, in my opinion FWP is a significant upgrade from Word,  I have found it
able to do things that word just doesn't do.  About the only area that word
is better is it's style sheets, but the rest of the program pales in comparison 
For example word has no support for Sidebars, ChangeBar, Variables, citations
{such as   [see figure 1 on page 3]}  fullwrite will automaticaly number and
keep track of such references, Bibliographies.  Just on those features alone
FWP exceeds word.
   I have also converted most of the English class here at the University also!
There is not one person in the past 6 months who I've shown FWP to that didn't
immediatly realize how much better a WP can be.  I used to be a dedicated
Word fan, but now.....
