Yes, look somewhere on the Microsoft Internet site (apparently you use MS
Word 6.0. In that case, after downloading and installing the convertor, you
should have the confirmation box for conversion switch to ON).

An approach I've used is to first convert a WP 6.0 document to Rich Text
Format (i.e., SAVE AS  *.rtf) and then open the .rtf file in Word 6.0.
It works pretty well for text; unfortunately,  graphics imbedded in the
WP document do not fair well from the conversion.

Regards, John
