Although the old WordPerfect Mail was adequate, it fell short in several areas. The most drastic improvement is probably in changing the e-mail client program. This more centralized help system makes it much easier to find the help a user needs. There are tabs, of course, for each of the major components - WordPerfect, Quatro Pro and Presentations - in addition to others for tools and features that are common to all of them, such as spelling and grammar checkers. We especially liked the new Reference Center, which replaces the help system of previous versions. The menus and shortcuts were tailored to the mode we selected. For instance, when opening WordPerfect, we could choose from the modes of WordPerfect, Microsoft Word, WordPerfect Legal or even WordPerfect Classic for anyone who misses that old blue-screen environment. For each one, we were allowed to choose which type of workspace we wanted. That was immediately evident to us when we opened the various component programs. From its increased integration with document management systems to its larger file type compatibility, WordPerfect Office X5 let you use and work with your documents in more robust and clever ways. WordPerfect Office X5 Standard from Corel is a significant improvement over its previous X4 version in many ways. But then, there are times when everything changes for the better. Sometimes, the improvements in the new versions are minimal, and one wonders why the company even bothered. Thus we are greeted with a new version of most office suites every couple of years or so. But needs do change, almost like clockwork. If the software needs of a typical office worker never changed, we would never need new versions of the software that makes work a little easier.
