Did you download the beta version of OpenOffice 2.0?? Boy will you be happy!! It's VERY buggy so don't expect allot from it but quick shapes are just out of this world. Gradient fills and all sorts of other goodies. If I am to understand what they mean to do is to offer a filter to save and import WordPerfect files too!! Plus a host of other really neat things. It's still fast but it did crash quite a bit on my XP Pro (SP2) system.

All the best
