    This is strange. How a word processor canbe used for project management. I can imagine editing one document collaboratively, but how can you build a real project plan in a word processor? I think tools like Liquid Planner or Wrike will do a better job here. I personally like Wrike, as it allows to drag and drop items on a gantt chart.
