Can anyone steer me to a book or >FTPable file which explains such mysteries? Thanks. Here are two books about file formats. I don't know whether they cover Lotus and Quattro: File Format Handbook by Allan Taylor 500pp, 1992 Slawson Communications, Inc. 165 Vallecitos de Oro San Marcos, CA 92069-1436 (800) 752-9766, (619) 744-2299 (I don't suppose anyone wants the ISBN numbers and all that, but I've got 'em if someone does.) PC File Formats and Conversions by Kussman Abacus Press (That's all I know about this one. I saw it at a local bookstore here in Chicago, Kroch's and Brentano's.)
