The Problem:
   My sister and her husband have a Wang Professional Computer (kind
   of a Wang PC with built-in Wang word processor) with a lot of
   documents in Wang format.  Now, she uses WordPerfect on a regular
   PC or PS/2, and would like a way to convert the Wang-format 
   documents to WordPerfect.

The Question:
   Does anybody know of utility programs or service bureaus that do
   such conversions?  Ideally, it would be a means of translating the
   Wang document to the equivalent WordPerfect document (with the
   equivalent formatting controls intact).  Is this a pipe dream?
   Does anybody know is such a service is available?  If so, where
   and what cost?

   After reading the Wang doc, it appears that they have a utility 
   which exports the raw text out of a document into a regular MS-DOS
   2.01 (!) format.  I guess that we can fall back on this if nothing
   else is available...  There is a considerable volume of documents
   affected, including my brother-in-law's thesis and related work.

Please use email to the below address, as I do not normally follow 
these newsgroups.  I will post a followup if there is interest.

In case it's relevant, here are the details on the Wang:
   Wang Profssional Computer 2.40
   BIOS 1.21
   MS-DOS 2.01
   Main System Menu Release 1.22
   Wang Word Processing Version 2

Thanks in advance.
