What really wowed us the most was not the workshare or read/write/print prevention capabilities. Our document management programs offer similar features. What wowed us most was Document Protection. The new enhancements to Document Protection will offer a host of new opportunities for law firms. They will FINALLY be able to enforce the use of proper styles in their documents. Which may finally signal an end to document corruption.
What are the implications of this on the end users? Well, those users who insisted that they would never use a style ("I don't need that - I just do simple documents") will have to understand how styles are used. And AT LEAST be able to apply them. And once folks understand the power of stylizing documents, and embrace it, there's a good possibility they'll want to know how to do it right. So we trainers should stay busy. Microsystems.com has an excellent write up on considerations to make before moving to 2003.
We're guessing there will be a bit of an outcry once the first style protected documents are introduced. And that a grumbling acceptance will follow shortly thereafter... What a great new feature. Word 2003 gets two thumbs up.
