MS2000/WP8

[Guest guest]

Dear Jim, yes I had that problem too, because at home, I only have MS

Word 97 since I almost always use Word Perfect 8. But I sent the

unopened attachment to myself at my office where someone had MS2000

software and opened it on their computer that way. A real

roundabout

way of doing things but it worked. I'm sure others have done this

also.

> I sent my package to Dr. Rutledge and immediately got back an

e-mail

telling me that my insurance papers were attached using MS2000. I

don't have MS2000, I have WordPerfect 6.0. When I called the office

they told me that I was the only one who hed ever had a problem and

that it would be difficult for me to receive and complete the

insurance letter any other way. Is this possible?,. Am I the only

one who doesn't have MS2000? Has anyone else had this problem and,

if you did, how was it solved. Everything else went very smoothly

until I hit this obstacle.

Hi : I read your email. You should be able to use ms2000 to save the

doc. in any format you want including WordPerfect and Word 97. All you do,

is have your friend open the attachment then use the " SAVE AS " feature to

save the document in the format you want. When the window opens after you

press " SAVE AS " down at the very bottom of that window you will see that the

document is saved in what ever format you received it in. You just press

the little down arrow to the right and all the different formats will appear

for you to choose. If you aren't sure what to save it as you can always

save it in " Text Format " all the software programs can read this format.

When you request info from Dr. R. or someone else who is using MS2000 or

what ever as them to save it in the format you are using. You also can save

your WordPerfect document in MS97 format when you use the " SAVE AS "

feature. Hope this helps. Price, Vancouver, British Columbia
