That's correct. All I get is Kword (.kwd) or "All file types (*.*)". If I 
choose a ".doc", I get the error "Could not import file of type 
application/msword".

I downloaded koffice-2.0.1-1.i386.rpm, which is 4.8mB, and am running it on 
RH7.0 with KDE2.1. I tried it on my home PC, which has an earlier version of 
KOffice running on KDE2.0, and the filters are there.

I realise the RPM I grabbed is probably just missing the fileters. I guess my 
question is, can I download the fileters, or do I need to re-download and 
reinstall the entire package ?

TIA,


Brett
