I have StarOffice 6.0 on my PC, and I just tested it- if I open a document with a native StarOffice extension (sxw) I can click File, then Save As, and then click the File Type drop-down. The option to save as Ms Word 97/2000/XP is listed. Would you mind verifying the file extension and posting? Lee Einer der.hans wrote: >Am 01. Sep, 2003 schwätzte Richard L.
