What was the best version of Lotus SmartSuite for OS/2?
I've heard that SmartSuite for OS/2 is not ver stable, it's that true?

Has anybody tested Papyrus? What do you think about it?
Thanks.

Who told you that?

I use Lotus SmartSuite 1.7 without problems, except a tiny bug in 1-2-3. The latest release is 1.71 without this bug, according I heard about.

The entire Lotus Smart Suite 1.71 is in daily use here. Especially Word Pro, 123, and Organizer. IMO, the suite is VERY stable, fast, and world class.

Sander

But there are problems with "native characters" support. Here (in Czech Republic) it cannot be used for export to any format (rtf, winword6/95/97/2000/XP) because it treats the special characters wrong.

I use both. Lotus 123 for Datasheet Calculations and Papyrus Office for Text. The integrated Database (Papyrus) is in my Opinion much better (easier to use) then Approach. There is a Demo of Papyrus on http://www.romlogicware.com

I find that StarOffice 5.1 for OS/2 works fine for me. I also use IBM Works (that came wit h OS/2 Warp ver 4) works for simple letters and spreadsheets).

I have read people using OpenOffice with ODIN and OS/2
( http://groups.yahoo.com/group/odinusers ).
