Thanks in advance to anyone that can help me or >chooses to comment. Perhaps you could use doc2html to convert them on-the-fly?... There are almost for sure other doc2XXX choices that might get better results... I suspect that the meta-data about who wrote the file, when they wrote it, etc that Word has been keeping for several versions now might also be something that has public accessors... -- Like Music? http://l-i-e.com/artists.htm
