You could try the wp2x package, although it's written to work with WordPerfect 5 it might work with later versions. It works for everybody around here, but we use WordPerfect 5.1 for DOS. Many people use later versions now and I don't know if the later version files work with wp2x. -- Harry Henry Gebel West Dover Hundred, Delaware GPG encrypted email gladly accepted.
