Thanks in advance!

    No, I don't know any reason that you can't have them both installed.

    OK you got me there, why is it crap?

    I'd rather have Works than a massively over-bloated office suite, 99% of the facilities of which I'm never going to use. I've used Open Office, got rid of it, MS Office (2003), got rid of it. Works does everything I want, what am I missing?
