MS Office for Mac and spaces

Hi,

I have tried everything from Lotus Symphony to iWorks to NeoOffice to MS Office for Mac 2008, and have found that I still go back to MS Office for sheer efficiency and compatibility with the rest of the world. But I absolutely pull my hair out with it when it comes to spaces. I work with 4 spaces, and Office never stays in one space. Is there a solution to fix this?
Is there any other Office type software out there that you would recommend?
Thanks,

Nigel

System Preferences > Expose & Spaces > Spaces tab

add ALL of the office suite under Application Assignments

Mike, I have added all of the suite into Spaces and assigned them to a space but I still have problems with Office whether I have the formatting palette open or not... :S

Office '08 doesn't work with spaces. According to Nadyne (Mac Business Unit at MS), it's a disagreement with the coding and Apple so far has been non-cooperative in working with Microsoft to fix it.
