Paradox hasn't gotten an update for I believe over several years and the BDE is becoming a thing of the past.

Looking at the Office product, there are some serious issues to making it work seamlessly with each other. Do not get me wrong i love using WP for manuals, books, etc and I also know WP users are the minority in the Word World but what the heck, Corel can give us a nugget to nibble on. I am pretty happy with WP X8 for the most part but it is time for a new release to catch up with the various Windows 10 options as well as keeping people happy.Ĭorel tends not to tell anyone whether there is a software roadmap of enhancements that are coming for users nor do they even put out anything to keep the WP world happy. It, too, features speech recognition in the form of IBM's ViaVoice, but there's still a long way to go before any of these speech tools become truly valuable.Finally venting over at officecommunity I thought i would do it here as well.

SmartSuite gives Office XP's Send For Review feature a run for its money with Team Review, which provides even more control over the file's routing list and access/amend profile. It includes Lotus Approach, FastSite Release 2, Freelance Graphics, Lotus 1-2-3, Organizer 5.0, and WordPro, as well as Lotus SmartCenter, a toolbar that launches applications and ties in with streaming Web information such as weather or stock reports. The licensing of the Pocket Oxford Dictionary is a welcome inclusion, as is the PDF export feature in WordPerfect 2002.Īlternatively, you might want to consider Lotus SmartSuite Millennium Edition (v9.6), especially if your company runs Lotus Notes. But CorelCentral also has Palm support, and Presentations allows you to publish your slideshows to the Web using a Macromedia Flash plug-in, which is more effective than PowerPoint 2002's HTML export. Certain features, such as the Property Toolbar, speech recognition (using Dragon Naturally Speaking) and Application Recovery Manager mirror some of Office XP's functionality.
