Good Overall Word Processor
Review of Lotus Word Pro 97 97 Complete package by
jaebaber
Advantages: Cheap, Good features, Excellent when used with lotus Smart Suite.
Disadvantages: German spell checker isnt all that good (but the english is, spot on. And its British English not American)
...like Lotus, but then again, Lotus doesn't really like them.
Lotus Word Pro 97 is a good overall Word processor. Sure, it doesn't have all the facilities that Microsoft Word does, but it's cheap.
Good for students and people on a tight budget, and when used with Lotus Smart Suite, its Excellent. Offers all the Major features that Microsoft Office does, at a fraction of the cost. A wide range of Templates, for everything from Letter writing, to ...

Do NOT buy!
Review of Lotus Word Pro 97 97 Complete package by
peterathomas
Advantages: None
Disadvantages: Causes holes in walls from where you end up head butting them in frustration.
Lotus Word Pro is one of those programs that manufacturers like to give away. Why? Because it's useless so then you have to buy more software. I bought this program when I bought a computer package and it is USELESS. Compare it Microsoft Word or Star OFFice and it just doesn't compare. Within a month of buying the computer package I had replaced it with Microsoft Office (97). Lotus is slow and inconvenient. It misses many obvious features of other ...

Review of Lotus Word Pro 97 97 Complete package by
faye2k
Advantages: ok program
Disadvantages: slow and useless
Many computer companies give away lotus with some computer packages. The reason they do this is because its totally useless. I found it hard to work, slow and found it took up a lot of space on my hard drive. A much better word processer is microsoft word, easy to work, lots of things you can do on it and overall a lot better that lotus. Please don't bother going out and buying it you will just be wasting your money. Instead save your money and buy ...

Lotus WordPro 97
Review of Lotus Word Pro 97 97 Complete package by
DaveRobinson
Advantages: Lots of features
Disadvantages: Presentation fo toolbars etc. not as nice as MS Word, a bit old
This is a brillaint office suite and is now available free on the cover discs of many computer magazines. It has all the same features as Microsoft Word 97, with things like auto-spell correct, highlighting words which have been spelt incorrectly etc. Also, it is kind of better than MS Word in a way as it is not open to macro virus attacks like MS Word is. Overall this is a superb word processor that may not have the microsoft name or presentation, ...

A good effort
Review of Lotus Word Pro 97 97 Complete package by
Kevinpv
Advantages: Good table facilities and spell checker
Disadvantages: Interface a bit messy and not as powerful as it could be as a product.
Lotus Word pro 97 is a good solid word processor, it doesn't compare to Microsof Word though. One thing I don't like about Word Pro is the interface at the start, I'd prefer if it went straight into a blank page than a menu. One of the features I particularly like on Word Pro is its spell check because the bar is at the top and doesn't get in the way of the page. Tables are quite easy to create on wordpro. I haven't been able to find any keyboard ...
