Screenplay Writing Software

How do i set up Word or similar software to write a screenplay?

I'm trying to write a screenplay and the format is quite specific. Word can't seem to help me with is. Can anything make it easier..... please!? I don't have screenplay software and frankly can't afford any or find any on torrents. Any free ones maybe?

1. Actually, Word can help you if you just look. Go to http://office.microsoft.com and look for the Word downloads area. I recall seeing templates there for just that purpose.
2. Don't waste your time fiddling with that stuff. go to http://www.scenewriterpro.com/Default.asp?rdr=va and get fully functional screenplay software to try out for free.
3. Yes, there's a very good free screenplay software on the web, called CeltX. You can download it here: http://celtx.com Here is a short "Feature Tour": http://www.celtx.com/walkthru/ Here's a manual: http://wiki.celtx.com/index.php?title=Main_Page
