MS Office Forum / Outlook / New Users / May 2008Word as editor
Hi, Are there any advantages in using Word as the editor for messages over doing it in Outlook itself? Thanks for any inputs. Ramesh you'll have all the spelling and editing functions of Word if you use word as your editor. As long as you use Outlook 2002 or later, the responsiveness should be good - word was not recommended as the editor in outlook 97 and not real good with outlook 2000 but each version since is well worth using. In Outlook 2007, you need an office suite installed to have the full editing capability of Word.

If you used Office XP or 2003, I'd tell you to try word as the editor for 2 weeks, but with 2000, its really dependant on your system and needs.
