[wilhelmtux-discussion] Anfragen an Kanton ZH und Stadt ZH zum Thema .doc und .xls

[Manfred.Morgner at gmx.net]

Hallo Claude,

a further point is - Not any windows user has Excel. For example my wife.
She uses Windows as the last member of my family, but she does not have a
Ecxel
License.

As some of you remember, I was a MSDN-Universal subscriber. This means, that
I have nearly all Microsoft Software in all languages Mircosoft ever
produced until about 1997. But the license forbids using this software for
other
reason than development and by other users than me. So she is unable to
watch
Excel files, even as Windows user.

If you wish to know, why we dont get a license, look out for the price.

Greetings,
Manfred
