i have a pc that DOESNT have lotus on it, but i have about 200 word pro docs which microsoft word cant open.
i know if i had lotus i could open them and convert them to word docs so....
a- do i have to put lotus on the pc (dont have it so idel if i can get round this)
b- is there a quick way to convert 200 docs without opening each one at a time?

Word Pro was given away on magazine cover CD a while ago, and I have it installed. I'll have a look to see what size the files are. Alternatively if you send me the files I could convert them for you (given that they're not top secret or anything).

Microsoft do a series of converters which you can download from their website. This will allow MS Word to open up various other document formats etc,etc
Don't think there's an easy way with the converter to convert all the files in one go though!!
Good luck

P.S: What version of Office are you running? 97,2000,XP....

Have a look at http://support.microsoft.com/default...b;EN-US;212265 as it gives you links to the converters based on the version of Office that you have!!

I did some work on this a while ago.......
Lotus never released the format conversion license for WordPro to Microsoft, they didnt want them to have / own the format, so I doubt you'll find any converter to do this.......this way......
Batch converters on the market to do the job exist however, the best we found is:
http://download.dataviz.com/conversi...nsplus6050.exe
It's a 15 day evaluation, that should give you enough time to convert your batch.
