Thanks for the update on the site. When I went there, it seemed as though I couldn't use the conversion service without paying a fee. I'm glad to know I was mistaken. I hope it will convert the older Word files I have that my computer refuses to read anymore. They're not really so VERY old, but my computer says they are! Thanks Janet Dr. J.

Just use the four step process they have. They of course are gathering a collection of files and email addresses that no one knows what they will use for. Mr. James B.
