O-O packages for implementing office suite APIs
Introduction
Office Suites
OpenOffice
OpenOffice 1 is a free office suite based on Star Office.
Google Docs
Google Docs 2 is also a free office suite. It follows the recent trend of transferring more executables online, making them easily available from anywhere with an Internet connection.
Microsoft Word
Microsoft 3 has long had a reputation for being closed and anti-competitive and entered the API game very late. It is now trying to catch up with the big boys.
