It might be a plan to see what the converters will allow before trying to
establish a workaround. DO NOT try and open the files from floppy disc with
Word. That is a sure method of ensuring corruption. Copy the files to the
hard drive before opening them. You can download the old DOS Word filter
from my web site - later filters should be included with Word.
