MS Word - I need to run it

My youngest goes to a school where they run MS Word on PCs and Macs.
At least I believe it runs on both machines; I've never used either.
Anyhow, I need to get some compatibility on the NeXT.  What's the
best way?  She needs to be able to work at school AND home on the
same floppy.

Is there a version of Word for the NeXT?  If not, is SoftPC or
Executor the best way to go?  Please, try to refrain from answering
unless you can make the comparison.  I am sure from what I have read
that either approach would do.  I just need to find the best way.

Cost is a factor.  What's available on student discount to a high school
student?

And thank you for your support.
