- I don't think that Winword has had "a lot of problems". The bugs that
- were fixed in 2.0a, b etc are trivial, and are unlikely to have
- affected the majority of users. 2.0a's major contribution was to fix a
- bug in importing large bitmaps.
-
- As far as I know, the bug fixes in 2.0b and 2.0c are very minor. 2.0c
- has a nice feature where word will hide its menubar and scroll bars
- etc, a full screen mode.
