It's a fairly easy procedure. I open Word, go to the Insert menu, and then Insert File. I type in the DOS address and up comes the file. Then first thing I do is delete the end-of-text command that comes with each XyWrite file, represented by a square box at the bottom of the inserted text. After that it's a matter of re-formatting for the best presentation (i.e. choosing font and type size), and manually replacing the MDUL and other XyWrite formatting commands with Word formatting.
I leave the original XyWrite file intact.

What process do you use to copy from Xy to Word?
