As Dave says, the Word Perfect version of RTF was definitely more stable 
that MS's.   If for some reason the Word installation CDs are unavailable, 
or you cannot find a machine locally with either WP installed or 
Word-incl.-RTF, then consider loading OpenOffice.   I have found its RTF 
abilities far superior to those of MS but I cannot and have not done a 
side-by-side comparison with WP.

Certainly OpenOffice in its present form is extremely viable as a 
replacement for MS Office.  Visit www.openoffice.org for downloading 
details - it is Open Source (freeware) as you probably already know.   The 
only gotcha I have found in installation is that you should do a NETWORK 
install if you intend to have multiple users on your machine and want each 
one to have their own "personality" settings for OpenOffice.   Yes, I know, 
the "network" feature threw me at first because my thinking was that "I 
don't want it on a network, I only want it on this machine!"

Anyway, good luck,
Denis
