MacWord4 will probably not save "up" to a high enough PCWord to preserve formatting when WordPC2000 opens the document. But then WordPC2000 has to save the document "down" far enough for MacWord4 to not lose formatting. Either MacLinkPlusPro13 or WordX might work, going both ways. If you don't have access to them, you could send me the file and I could send it back as WordPC2000. Then send it as WordPC2000 and I will send it back as WordMac4.
