I like Star Office, but don't have XP, so I can't say how well it works on XP. The import/export filters are VERY good. I've redlines MS Office stuff for friends and shipped it back to them and they never knew it was not done in MS Office. Star Office is a big download, but you can order a CD of it for pretty cheap, if you have a slow connection and don't want to tie up your modem that long. If you have broadband, then no worrries, the download site is very fast. Interesting that QP won't work on XP. How old is it? jon
