Hi, Please can someone tell me how to install microsoft office 2007 on ubuntu with or without wine.
i have used other website but i did what they said and it didnt work.
Please Help

Pretty sure you will need Wine.
You don't say what you have tried so
have you tried here:https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Microsoft_Office
Also you might want to post your question in the Unix or Linux forums.

I have tried it but it isnt working and is there a way of getting another piece of software like crossover that is for free
thanks

Thinstalled Portable Ms ( Microsoft ) Office 2003 Pro SP3 runs in Ubuntu 9.04 Jaunty
After installing wine software in Ubuntu 9.04 ( www.ubuntu.com ), right click office2003.exe (181 MB) file downloaded from
minnova org com 2450754
http://www.mininova.org/com/2450754
and select Open with wine.Small "loading Start.exe" screen appears in lower right corner. A small button like icon appears in top right corner and right click that to open word / excel / powerpoint. Home folder is automatically considered as My Documents.
The following setting is needed for Word to start and close without showing any error about Normal.dot file. After opening Word, select Tools, Options, File Locations, User templates, Modify. Then select My Documents and click OK.
After exiting Word / Excel / Powerpoint, right click the button like icon that appears in top right corner and select "Exit Office", so that Word / Excel / Powerpoint can be run once again without any error message.
