Mimi,

I don't quite understand what you're asking here. Interpreting the quote
marks and your use of the word "normal," I intuit this: you're in Word.
You want something that can later be read in XyWrite normal. "I don't
think it's 4.0."

First of all, go to your XyWrite command line, and enter HELP. It will
return a screen showing you what version of XyWrite you are using. Then
let us know. Then let us know exactly what you mean by "normal." Do you
mean XyWrite's "normal" mode vs. its expanded mode, or what?

Once we have these details we should be able to offer some assistance.
