I've played with Word 5, and I have seen its Grammar Checker in action,
but I wonder if anybody finds it actually useful or not? Also, is there
a French grammar checker for Word 5? If so, could someone who uses W5
French, mail me?

Next thing:

Is there any particular reason why I should upgrade from Word 4.0e
to Word 5.0/5.0a/5.1? I'm simply a text person, lots of fancy formatting,
but I don't draw, I don't subscribe between applications. Is Word
5.0 faster or slower than 4.0? I've heard someone say that W 5
is basically W 4 with add-ons. Any truth to that?
