Microsoft Office Standard Edition 2003 is a bundle of the most essential desktop applications: Office Word 2003 for word processing, Office Excel 2003 for spreadsheets, Office PowerPoint 2003 for presentations and Office Outlook 2003 for e-mail and personal information. Office applications share a common look and feel, which means there's less to learn when switching between them. There are also shared components, such as the drawing tools which let you create charts, diagrams and text effects. Another strong point is that Visual Basic for Applications is fully integrated, enabling anything from simple macros to custom solutions that automate one or more of the Office applications. Office has been a highly capable product for years, making it hard for Microsoft to come up with compelling new features. New in Office Standard Edition 2003 is great integration with SharePoint Services running on Windows Server 2003, allowing users to save documents to an internal website with features like update notification, task lists and version control. Tablet PC users get built-in support for Ink, letting you add handwritten notes and drawings to Office documents. Those with always-on Internet access will like the updated Task Pane, offering online help and potentially third-party services direct from the Internet. Outlook has been reworked in this edition, with a better interface and more secure e-mail reading. Office Word 2003 is enhanced with a new Reading view, using ClearType technology and automatic page-sizing for ease in reading online documents. Although this is the Standard edition, it is comprehensive and feature-rich. There is also a professional edition, which adds the Office Access 2003 database manager, Office Publisher 2003 for desktop publishing and some additional features in the area of XML support and rights management. Office deserves its position as the leading productivity suite. It's an excellent deal, but makes less sense as an upgrade unless you have a tablet PC or will make use of the new collaboration features. --Tim Anderson

 Very intuitive, easy to use and produces great results... March 17, 2007

I have just upgraded to Office 2007 but find myself still using 2003 Pro.
Why? It's just that good. The layout is by far the best out of all the office products, and the menu driven system allows you to create very professional work with little input. There are even templates and wizards to help you along the way. All the major office programs are here except FrontPage, which most people wouldn't use anyway, unless into web design.
Overall, I have given it 5 stars as it is the best value for money as well as being a very complete office package.
Recommended!

Just thought you might like to know, if you have an NHS email - you can order this direct from Microsoft, for shipping charge only. 17. Special deal with Microsoft for NHS employees. It's called their Home Use Programme.[...]

I've been using Microsoft Office on a professional, daily basis for twelve years (I earn my living by writing, so I "live" in Microsoft Word for extended periods during the day).But recently I've stopped using Microsoft Office products altogether, for the simple reason that the latest release of OpenOffice is now every bit as good. It uses open-standard file formats, can read/write Microsoft Office file formats, and is built by a reputable company (Sun Microsystems). It can even write Adobe PDF documents - which is very useful. Most remarkably of all, it costs absolutely nothing! It is a completely free download off the Internet from it's own official web site. It's not even a "trial" version - you get the whole thing for free, to keep. So take a long look at OpenOffice before you spend any money on Microsoft's offering. You'd be mad not to.

I have been using Office since I can remember (well, Uni from 95-98 anyway!) and this seems the best most intuitive version of Office yet. I have Office Premium with Visio which I use for both my studies and work and can honestly say I have never experienced a problem with any bugs in it; and documents produced work fine on my works PC which has Office 2000 installed. I don't use Outlook as I have on-line access to my works email account which is all I use, so I can't comment on it. The other apps are impressive though. It could be beneficial for them to sort out the Options dialog box in each individual application but that is only a small issue! It is a lot of money granted, but I would have no hesitation in recommending it
 Outlook 2003 Bug February 16, 2005
37 out of 45 found this review helpful
I bought Office Professional with the specific intention of using Outlook as my email provider. Unfortunately this particular version has a number of bugs and potentially conflicts with Norton antivirus.The problem is that Outlook from time to time does not send out emails in the Outbox a problem that appears to occur on a random basis, but more often when an email in the outbox is re-edited. There does not appear to be a fix for this on the Microsoft site and the software developers seem to be unclear how to resolve this problem. After hours of frustation trying to get Outlook to send out a set of emails, I finally gave up and downloaded a free emailing package call Thunderbird from Mozilla, which does all I need.
