OfficeXP & Office 2002 -- Same ???

Post #117,127 by dmarker 9/8/03 6:45:22 PM Reply	OfficeXP & Office 2002 -- Same ??? Does anyone know if OfficeXP is the 2002 variant or is there a diff prod called 2002. MS website says that Office 2002 eXcel supports XML saving & loading. I was wondering if that meant OfficeXP. Cheers Doug Marker

There is some support for XML saving and loading but I have no real experience with it. There is an Office 2003 coming out in October IIRC. It supposedly has even more XML support, but again I have no experience with it. -- Chris Altmann

A rare disonnect between marketing and design. You would almost think the code was ready to release and then marketing decided to change the name to match the newly released OS. Astonishing. MS Outlook XP/2002 (now considered a member of the Office suite) has yet a third name, Outlook 10. I don't think any of the other apps are also using the 10 suffix though. Probably a good thing. Mocking them is already too easy. ----------------------------------------- It is much harder to be a liberal than a conservative. Why? Because it is easier to give someone the finger than it is to give them a helping hand. Mike Royko
