Actually, I've refined my question. I have at least one Word document that demands a password in AbiWord. It may have been edited solely in Word 97, or might have been partially edited in Word 2000. I have other documents that load OK in AbiWord. The ones that don't load require a password in XP + AbiWord. They don't in XP + Office97. BTW, I can enter any of my known passwords but none of them are accepted. ----------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe from this list, send a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the word unsubscribe in the message body.
