Advice/help please

Hi all,

 

Long story short, I'm clearing out my documents on an old, old laptop before I throw it away.

 

I want to transfer a few things to my new laptop, some are on Word 2003 and some are on Excel 2003.

 

On my new laptop, I don't have MS Office and don't have the money to buy it, so can't open the docs.

 

Is there a free piece of software available to download that will allow me to open the old documents i.e. is compatible with old MS office. Doesn't need to be anything fancy.

 

Thanks.

Like KingCarr pointed out just google that bit of text and bang job done. For how long it takes to open FT and write a post he could have googled it.

But if idiots are going to reply, idiots are going to ask!
