Dear Werner:

Thank you for the reassuring good news. I was aware of RTF, and that should 
take care of most situations. Hopefully, Koffice eventually adds support for 
saving in MSWord format itself. 

By the way, since OpenOffice is open source, couldn't Koffice adapt the 
OpenOffice filters for its own applications?

Thank you.

Benjamin
