Product Description Corel WordPerfect Office 2002 Standard Upgrade . Experience the latest performance innovations of the office suite you know and love with WordPerfect Office 2002 Standard Edition. This powerful software package delivers outstanding compatibility and a host of time-saving features. Discover advanced word processing, spreadsheets and presentations, along with an e-mail client and address book. WordPerfect Office 2002: Cutting-edge technology. Timeless choice.
Amazon.com Review Whether saying "no" to Microsoft's hegemony or keeping the tradition of sleek and powerful software alive, users moving on up to WordPerfect Office 2002 Standard Edition can take pride in their choice. The core suite includes WordPerfect 10, the Quattro Pro 10 spreadsheet program, Corel Presentations 10, and the CorelCENTRAL 10 personal information manager (PIM); each of these meets or exceeds the qualities of their competitors. Accessories like the Pocket Oxford Dictionary and Corel's Application Recovery Manager make life easier for users and administrators alike. The advanced voice recognition software and microphone help eliminate the risk of repetitive stress and improve one's diction simultaneously (mumblers need not apply). Pretty much every file type we've ever heard of can be imported and exported, so longtime users of other software should have a relatively seamless transition. The look and feel will be familiar to users of Microsoft Office, though quirks in hot keys, commands, and toolbars will take a few days to master. This might be the only reason not to switch from Microsoft--inertia can be difficult to overcome and novice users may resent learning new tools. However, the strengths, including Adobe PDF publishing, Microsoft's VBA scripting, Web compatibility, and networked file sharing, should convince most open-minded users to consider the merits of WordPerfect Office 2002. --Rob Lightner--This review refers to the Professional Edition

Better but only after you flush WP9 out of your computer December 14, 2002 9 out of 9 found this review helpful
I hated WP10. I have used Word Perfect since the first Windows addition but this was worse than version 8 which was a disaster. But then I found out that my problem was that I needed to take WP9 out of my computer before installing the upgrade. Looks like the Word Perfect folk could and should have made that automatic. But once you do that it seems to run much better with very few problems. I also have Microsoft Windows 2000 in my computer. Wordperfect is superior, especially for desk top publishing.
Operating System May be the Problem May 28, 2002 10 out of 12 found this review helpful
I have not used WP2002, but have been a WP/Corel user for years. WordPerfect is clearly a better program than MSWord and while Excel has some good features, I prefer QuattroPro which is better designed and easier to use.I have had various stability problems when multitasking on my computer until I upgraded from Windows 98 to Windows 2000. Now I almost never crash. It would be useful to know from those who have used WP2002 what operating system they are using. I'll bet that using Windows 95 or Windows 98 with the new WP2002 may be their problem.
