I need IT help!!!

[MessybutHappy]

I'm in need of updating my office software, I want Access, so it looks like I have three options, the subscription version or buy the whole package or just access.
Any advice? Its a big purchase and I feel out of my comfort zone!
Cheers!

I currently pay 7.99 per month for the use of all office tools. Access is included. I think thats reasonable but then im also using it for my level 3 work x

My Microsoft package was just up for renewal and I wasn't paying the prices they were asking for.

So now I've got OpenOffice instead of Microsoft. I used to use Word and Excel and there is a slight difference but nothing major and the main thing was the price.....:D

I also have thunderbird email instead of outlook for email

Google docs is good as well dp uses it - there is a suite of different programmes.

Or openoffice which I have used before and is very good :D

I'll have a look at the other wp options later!

If you are a student can you get the office package at a reduced rate?

Sadly not an option, I do want to study again, but not just now!
