Can you help me with the following conversion matter?

I have just made the step from WordPerfect 5.1 tot Wordperfect
6.1 for Windows.

How can I transport all my 5.1-textdirectories, 5.1-sub-text-
directories and 5.1-textdocuments to WP6.1 all at once?

In Wp5.1 my systemprograms are under 'c:\wp51'. My textdirec-
tories follow then, like 'c:\wp51\car\[*.*]', 'c:\wp51\poet-
ry\[*.*]', et cetera.

In WP6.1, I made the directory: 'c:\wpwin' for the systempro-
grams. Furthermore I made the directory: 'c:\wpwin\archive'.
It is behind this directory 'archive' that I want to place all
my old textdirectories, -subdirectories and -documents.


Thanks for your reply, preferably to my Email address:

The DOS command: 

   XCOPY /s *.* destination

copies everything from the current directory and its sub-directories
to 'destination', creating new sub-directories where needed.

Your problem is one MAJOR reason I NEVER put documents in a directory
(or sub-directory thereof) where executables are located!
