That's an APA paper formatter; I'd just find another one of those, there are inexpensive/free one's of those that are good, will do the same thing as the one his school's giving him.

His school should offer a student's inexpensive Word though; the least expensive one I found was $115; is that still too much?

I would back his truck up and have him use the excuse that he knows he has it at work and thought he had it at home, yada yada.
