Running MS Office (Word) on Edubuntu?

Hello everyone,

I've been asked to figure out how to have staff access MS Word using
our network.  OpenOffice / Libre Office apparently isn't good enough
(compatibility issues when moving files between one location that's
Word and one that's Libre Office).

Is this possible? I know there's software like Wine and Crossover -
are those the recommended ways to do this?  Or remote desktop to a
Windows server? If that is the case, will the staff still be able to
access their LTSP home files?

I appreciate your feedback!

Thank you
Joseph
