Microsoft's productivity software isn't my go to except for excel. Idk how the fuck they managed to make excel work so good, with the exception of the cloud version which is total ass.
Somebody suggested to me here a few months ago that Excel is the only corporate/productivity software that actually works because it is one of very few that high-level managers who make software purchasing decisions sometimes use themselves, and I think, yes, that explains it.
They had some amazing macros and buttons in their sheets that would place inventory orders, keep track of cash-outs print out deposit slips, send info to head office, and all kinds of stuff they couldn’t recreate in excel. They ended up buying multiple different software packages to do everything.
I now see that something called WordPerfect is still available (or available again) https://www.wordperfect.com
Does anyone know if that is the same as the one we used and loved, of old, or is it a completely new product just badged as WP?
Still used in the legal profession for ages longer than you'd expect, though. My Mom was still going strong with WordPerfect long after it'd been phased out of every job I had.
My mother retired in the mid- to late-2000's, but so far as I'm aware she wrote her opinions in WordPerfect till the end.
A thing I know because I fixed her editing, too.
