In office 2003 how can FIXEDSYS font avail in EXCEL & not in WORD
 

FIXEDSYS font is available in EXCEL but does not appear in the font list in
Word.
How can this be? Shouldn't Office provide a consistent environment?

I want to paste columnar text into Word and the proportional fonts screw it
all up.
The corporate desktop just switched to Office 2003 here and support is al
ittle light.

Yup, don't get me started on Word. If you haven't got anything nice to say....

Anyway, try using "Courier" or "Courier New" font in Word. It is a
fixed-width font.

See http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=291354 "Some fonts that
were available in Word 95 are no longer available in Word 2002".
The article also applies to Word 2003.
