That's why I think PDI needs to consider a Keysoft word processor for
the PC. I've been experiencing just this same problem. My BN is
still in hospital, supposedly to be released by this evening. I can
get at my txt files and my doc files just fine, but anything I've
written in kwb files is not accessible to me. Since I keep
everything, practically, on my microdrive, and it can travel between
my BN and an ancient laptop I have here, it would sure make life
easier if I could translate the files by using something on the
computer.

P.S., Les, if I get my BN before you do, you can send me your KWB
files and I'll translate 'em and send 'em back unread.
