    Well my free trial of Microsoft Office 2007 finally ran out -- at the worst possible time. :(

    I really need to edit and print a new copy of a paper that is saved as a Microsoft 2007 document, but since my trial period expired, I can't edit it anymore, I can only view/print it.

    So is there a program out there that I could download that would allow me to view this document exactly as it is right now and edit it?

    Thanks in advance.

    If you have Office Home or Student Edition 2007, send me an email. I have some extra serial codes for it I'll send to you for free.

    Um guys he might not know what open office is..

    Look up OpenOffice.org Basically it's a suite of products like MS Office but it's free and is supported by the open software community.

    Special thanks to Mr. Brightside and others who graciously offered their spare product keys.

    An immediate solution might be Google Docs, but I don't know if that'll support the Office 2007 format.
