Hi,
Yes, I was able to extract plain text from OOXML, without any format

It is truly sad that Microsoft, since it doesn't support it's
dos versions of Word anymore, won't allow free redistribution
of it. The reality is, there are very few old computers left
that can only run dos, compared to the number of computers that
run Linux

OK, for the record, I bought a legal copy of Word 5.0 when this was

My all times favorite DOS word processing program
As Marco said, Word's Find and Replace does this easily - you need to click
on the 'More' button in the Find and Replace dialog, then click on
'Special', then insert as many of the characters as you like in sequence -
in this case, 'Paragraph Mark' and 'Tab Character'. Works like a charm!

Certainly, pass it over here. I'll release dos and osx versions (and
linux too if I can get another linux box up and running)
Fpc is great.

Perhaps an EMM386 problem?
The EMM displays the message, but doesn't necessarily cause the error.
Haven't swapped shells yet, but I'll give that a try. I was going to switch
over to 4DOS anyway - I actually bought that program way back and always
thought it a great set of tools. Thanks!
