Don't quote me (famous last words), but it's my understanding that the legal
field, in general, still uses WordPerfect as the standard. I helped out a
lawyer friend in his office for awhile once, and the paralegal there said
most law offices use WordPerfect...
I *love* WP's Reveal Codes!! That is definitely my biggest regret about
having to use Word. Word's paragraph symbol button is nothing compared to
Reveal Codes...
