Title: doc2html.pl and word2x

[I apologize for the multipart email, an MS Exchange bug ignores my client settings for plain text]

I'm trying to use word2x as an external converter for Word docs, through doc2html.pl.

When I run word2x

$ /usr/local/bin/word2x.exe //c/air31.doc \-

It works; I get the text to stdout.

So I put this in doc2html.pl:

my $CATDOC = '/usr/local/bin/word2x.exe';

and later, in the text section

$cmdl = "$cmd $Input \-";

where appropriate.

The only output I get from

$ /usr/local/bin/doc2html.pl //c/air31.doc

is

doc2html: [?]
!       UNABLE to convert

How can I troubleshoot this?  Any ideas?

Thanks,

-Greg Holmes
