Does anybody know how I can download new office assistants for Office 2004? There is a gallery for office assistants, but there aren't any other choices. How do I get other choices?

Here is how Microsoft told me to do this. (I was shocked they even replied to my inquiry.) You must have Office v. X for Mac, and pull the Assistants from the folder in there to the folder in Office 2004. Genius, huh? If you want office assistants, you have to own a previous copy of Office v. X. I fail to understand why they couldn't have made improvements to the office assistants and made them look neat like in Windows. Microsoft just has something against Macs I guess.

I used to like them because they did some instersting stuff but then they just started getting in the way and I no longer like them being around. there novilty wares off really pretty fast.

That might of been why MS drop them is a vast majority of people dont like them and never use them so they chose not to waste the money on them

Thanks, that's helpful to know.
