MS Works apparently is being discontinued by Microsoft:

I guess MS Works users will have to switch to something else…

I think you’ll find that MS Works (v9 atleast) supports .doc, .docx, .xls and .xlsx

While I’m not a fan of MS Works, it’s not true to say ” it can’t create standard DOC and XLS documents”… It can create documents in both those formats as long as the user knows (and remembers!) to use the File/Save As option and choose those file formats. The same is true of OpenOffice- though in OO, unlike MS Works, you can change the defaults and set DOC and/or XLS as the default file formats. But as installed, like MS Works, OpenOffice will save files in its own, less commonly-used formats.

This is very good work regarding the office suites
Google docs is $ 5o for per user (per year) ms office around $150 for three users and office comes in every three to four
Google docs is not powerful as compare to MS office every one know that
