Converting word 6.0 docs to word 2002 docs. jowenallen[ at ]triad.rr.com 12/29/2008 3:53:39 PM Happy New Year to all. Question: I have several old Word 6.0 docs on my hard drive. I'm now writing in Word 2002. When I try to "save" my changes, I get a prompt reading "This file needs to be saved using the 6.0 converter," etc. Is there any way to permanently convert these old docs to 2002 docs, and get rid of the prompt? Many thanks -- Owen
