Yup. And free. I prefer it on top of Microsoft Office. The address is not just the name, it's also their home page.
http://openoffice.org/

Heh, mine was too. Just an If, y'know ;)

Personally, I'd also consider LibreOffice as well, but that's just me.

For the record, my tone wasn't neutral. I have a problem with people who fail to read the posts actually given and feel the need to re-ask a question that was already answered before.

Well, you can try every one you can get, actually. It's a matter of personal preference to choose which one you like most.

In my opinion, it does not help to yell at users and get mad at them. Some users need a bit of time to understand what's being told, and as such they fail to properly read the instructions. I'm not trying to be mad at you, but have you ever had a situation in which you had to re-read the instruction manual of the product? That's what's going on with newbies. Maybe you can't imagine that with all the experiences you've had with SMF, but the newbies need to read the instructions a few times before actually understanding.
(yup, I may sound confusing but 'ey, just ask again if you don't quite understand ;))

I wasn't referring to the instructions. I'm referring to this very conversation.

You know, I didn't just magically have SMF dumped into my brain. I was a newbie once too. I'll note that it was 3 years between my starting to use SMF and my first post here originally.

There's a difference between having to re-read the manual and re-ask a question that has been answered just above where you're writing.

If you think that keeping silent means a person is a fool, I can't help. My apologies was to @ Yoshi2889 who cared to mention a way as an alternative. I ignored your post as you had nothing useful to offer and used that tone. I prefer to keep quite if I have nothing good to say. Do you think a person running an SMF site for more  than 2 year would not know about W...G editor ? I see only 500 posts to your credit, I have 20,000 + useful in many forums. That is there, this is there, if it is so why make Windows 7 ? Windows XP was good, Why linux, Ubunutu, why update SMF ? It will be great help if you keep you " I am the king attitude " with people who have no other go but depend on you.

I have every right to make a suggestion and it is quite possible for a team which made such a great script to make such an editor. If you do not like anything other members say and nothing useful to offer, would be basic manners to ignore the thread or at least not to taunt them since I do not see a staff tag under you name.
