I have Word-for-Word (although not the "Adobe File Utilities", thanks
for pointing that out). However, it is more comforable to convert a
file from inside XY-4, and also I find, strangely, that XY works better
than W-f-W. For example, if I save a file as "Word-2" in XY, Word-7
can read it. If I convert it to Word-6 in W-f-W, Word-7 says it doesn't
recognise the file format.
