If you save in RTF format and change the file extension (not the actual format) to .doc you'll find Word opens it without so much as a hiccup. (BTW: I'm using Word 97. There's nothing I need a word processor to do that it can't do. In fact, I'd still be using Word 95 except that it doesn't support the mouse scroll wheel.) -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
