It does, but you won't find the kinds of improvements we really want - like
fixing the Master Document problem, or cross-file ability re: TOCs and indexes.
I tried Word 2K for a series of documents because the company had standardized
on it, and wound up with many of the old problems. The books weren't all that
long, either - two had four chapters and one had five. I'm still not keen on
the way Word sets up style sheets, either, but I suppose I'm just used to the
way Frame does it.
