Micro 7 was a French computer magazine. It was not dedicated to any particular system and included a central part with listings for several systems.
Votre Ordinateur (= Your Computer) was a similar French computer magazine, with most issues coming with listings in 'simple' BASIC, easily adaptable for any existing system.
In October 1985, both magazines were merged to become Micro V.O while keeping the Micro 7 central part. The new title refers to both previous magazines, but also means 'Micro Version Originale" (= Micro Original Version).
The below mentioned issues feature MSX content. * indicates software provided as listing (replaced by a screenshot for the FM Voicing sounds published in Micro V.O).
