G'Day,

I am posting this on behalf of a friend who is writing a specialised
database program that produces lists in word processor file formats.
He has been requested to produce a version that produces a MS-Word V5
file, complete with bolding and underlining etc.  Would anybody have a
description of the file format for MS-Word?
