Re: conversion from XyWrite to word

Really? Have you tried saving the files as a Word 6.0 file? And/or Have
you removed any ≪pg≫ codes in the XyWrite file?

That's all I can think of. Over to you, Patricia.

Unfortunately, the filters bundled w/ XY4 are great for converting TO
XyWrite, but when converting FROM Xywrite tend to make each line of output a
separate page, making the filters functionally useless for converting, as
Avi wants, from Xywrite to Word.

ACII: That would be Wordport. I use this program too. There were filters
bundled with the legal install package of Xy4 for Dos. If that's what
you have, then you have the filters also.

Blueberry Software: That goes back to the 1980s. I had no idea it was
still around. It could convert to Xy3 and maybe later versions can
convert to Xy4.

I use an old version of Advanced Computer Innovations' filter,
available at http://www.acii.com/.  Blueberry Software's Filtrix,
which I have never used, claims it can convert XY3 .

Hope this helps.

  Does there exist a program that converts (or nearly converts) a
  XyWrite document into Word? I can manually do this by calling up
  a XyWrite file in Word and using "find/replace" to get rid of the
  formatting commands. I must then insert bold and italicized
  formatting by hand.  Is there anything available out there that
  would do this for me?
