In keeping with Microsoft's much-ballyhooed .NET strategy, Office XP introduces several features that utilize the vast infosphere inhabited by the 21st-century desk jockey. Smart tags beckon underneath recognized objects like misspellings or symbols, offering a stock quote here, a synonym there, or "Would anyone care to configure my auto-correction list?" The task pane looks similar to Microsoft Internet Explorer's Explorer Bar, and acts like an open tool chest pulled up alongside each application in the suite, providing readily configured searches for information or multimedia files. Putting up a team Web site that tracks projects and serves as an information hub requires only the use of one of the included templates, ready to be customized and uploaded to the server.
The Send for Review feature further streamlines the collaborative process by allowing the sender to view revisions made by multiple parties within the framework of the original document. Outlook now features a color-coded calendar and easier meeting management, along with instant messaging and variable e-mail account access. All user system errors can be tracked globally, and then network security settings modified remotely while anti-virus and debugging IT resources are diverted accordingly.
After firing up Microsoft Word, typing "Dear Somebody," and hitting the Enter key, we made a startling discovery. Up popped Clippy, Microsoft's publicly pink-slipped office assistant. Clippy might have aptly announced, "Rumors of my death have been greatly exaggerated," but instead predictably observed, "It looks like you're writing a letter." Once the groans of disbelief had subsided, we quickly right-clicked and banished Clippy to the silicon ether, presumably forever. --Dominic Johnson--This review refers to Office XP Standard Edition

Customer Reviews of Microsoft Office XP Professional [Old Version]
MS XP for Students and Teachers It works well for my kids school work projects.
An annoying hassler
I have Office XP Professional 2002. The bad thing about it now is it keeps annoying me with a Windows Installer every time I execute
<
>an Office application or anything with Internet Explorer that pops
<
>up trying to install FrontPage, and I have FrontPage on my computer. It's trying to configure it / thinks I don't have it and that's why I gave up on Internet Explorer and switched to Mozilla Firefox.
Do not buy this product!!!!!
I have Microsoft Office 2000 and was in the process of buying/upgrading to Microsoft Office XP, until I noticed that I would have to buy 4 different programs for my family's 4 separate computers.
<

<
>My wife has her own computer, my daughter has her own computer I have mine, and we have a laptop we all use collectively when we travel.
<
>
<
>So with Microsoft's new licensing policy it would cost me a small fortune to keep those in my family using the XP version.
<
>
<
>On top of that... we tend to stay on the cutting edge of the latest hardware available, (I build and upgrade my own systems), so I would be susceptible to going to Microsoft with my hat in hand explaining why I need clearance to reinstall THEIR program again on my computer.
<
>
<
>I know the runaround this involves, plus I don't like the idea of having to play this game with a product I have paid for!
<
>It is demeaning to say the least.
<
>
<
>Microsoft can keep their programs (I was going to purchase Microsoft Front Page and found similar restrictions), and I will be sure to keep their "Big Brother" mentality in mind when I purchase software in the future.
<
>
<
>This new licensing policy is sure to hurt their sales and is sure to open up opportunities for other software companies not so anal about licensing.
<

<
>Microsoft can stick this (and their other programs) up their hard drive, because it's not going on mine!
