I saved a Word for Windows file "normal" style and then tried
to open it with Word for the Mac.  Word for Mac opened it BUT
didn't GET that it was a document - ie there were tons of
funny characters where formatting should have been.

So what's the trick?  It must be possible to transfer documents
between the two programs ... how ?

My versions: Word for Windows 1.0 (c) 1989
	     Word for Mac     4.0 April 10, 1989
