If you are fine with the older office suite (2019 I believe), there is a codeweaver program called crossover. They are the teams that make WINE a reality and they have a one version license so you can own it forever. Or yeah, you can also use VM.

Nice, thanks! 2019 should be good enough; the guides I was looking at were suggesting much older versions for WINE compatibility.

I just need to look into OneDrive, now.

Yeah, that is if I remember it correctly. But I do remember installing a modern office suite back then using crossover. They also have trials so you can test your target program is indeed running as it should before buying.
