Why do you want to do that? It is a very bad idea to use this software
as a converter from one poorly supported foreign file format into
another poorly supported foreign file format.
Whatever the reason for this conversion may be, there is no reason not
to use MS Office for this task.



I totally agree that using MS-Office for converting from DOC to DOCX is always a better apporach than using 'any' other piece of software.
('better' is not equal to 'faster'/'cheaper'/..... )

Because conversion is done between two MS-Office formats, the license can not be an issue.

MS-Office has some commandline options to start a macro, which can do the 'SaveAs' fo you....
