I don't have those options. Do you mean 'open with'?
If yours is like mine - then "Open" on the File menu, then the
"Files of Type" drop down at the bottom of the Open dialogue.
(not got a copy of word 97 here to check - but I think the option
existed in that version)
It does - I just get a blank scren.
What, once you have opened the file that way? If that option recovers
no text from the file, then there is a fair chance it is corrupt or
not even a doc file. If its non sensitive, email it to me and I will
have a look at it.
Will do, thanks.
