Andy,
	are you sure about Word 6 (PC) having a filter, 'cos that is the package 
my colleague originally tried to import this file into.  His is Word 97, but 
I would hope that "Bill" doesn't take away anything from his word 
processors when he produces the next generation, so I am now surprised if 
version 6 would have been able to read it and Word 97 can't.

If you can confirm Wod 6's capability I will get thge mastwer disks out for 
Word 6 and try to install these filters which are obviously missing.

Thanks for the info
