In which case, you are in the wrong group, which is why we're getting so
confused
This group supports Macintosh software, which will not run on
any kind of Compaq
You need to buy a copy of Microsoft Office for Windows. If you ask nicely
at work, they should give you a copy: most large businesses have a licence
that allows them to install Office on their employee's laptops.
Otherwise, eBay is your friend! The price you will pay depends on the
version you buy. The price you pay will depend on the version you buy.
The oldest version you will be able to use is Office 2000. Office 2003
would be a good middle option. Office 2007 is the latest and most
expensive. Office 97 is too old to be useful.
