Conversions: WP to MSWord

[Ilene]

Any idea if one can convert a batch of WordPerfect docs to
MSWord?

How does one get rid of the conversion nightmare with
tables, macros, merge docs etc?

I believe there is a batch converter in one of the Macros#.dot templates,
but I'm not finding information about this at the moment. But see

Hi both,
.... and don't expect too much.
Short quote from Suzanne's link:
"WordPerfect is considered the most difficult format to
convert accurately by far..."

If you have a lot of document, you want to look into purchasing a
third-party conversion program.

Two that I have worked with at various client sites are Microsystem's
DocXchange, http://microsystems.com/docxchange/ , and Levit & James's
CrossWords, http://www.levitjames.com/crosswords/CrossWords.html.
