I was at a user group meeting a few days ago, and a user that works for
a local Microsoft office said that Word 4.0 was not shipping yet, but was
very close. I think he said sometime in Novemeber. It will be interesting
to see if this release is solid and nothing like the 3.0 release. I think
the most unusual feature of 4.0 is the menu definitions, you can really
jumble up the menus in this new version if you wanted too...Time will tell
