A recent column refers to OpenOffice, and I was concerned with the compatibility with Microsoft Word. I really enjoy your column and thank you for sharing this information. If you want to find about other compression programs and dig a tad deeper into the subject, let me recommend going to and typing the search term zip. There may be readers who think this smacks of dishonesty, but I have a fine rationalization for moving from evaluation to evaluation. There are many other compression programs and I must confess that there was a time when I would simply move from product to product for the free evaluation periods, thereby postponing the need to fork over cash. Whatever you do your computer will start assigning special icons to zipped folders and you will be able to open that folder and extract the software ready to be installed on your computer. This greatly reduces the amount of time needed to download files and is commonly used.įor the next few days, or maybe weeks, users can go to and download version 9 of the software. That gives plenty of time to unzip stuff like the free open source OpenOffice suite of business programs available at Zipped means that a file has been compressed using complex computer code that does stuff like removing spaces between characters, indexing common words and assigning a short code to them and other tricks.
