Hi,

I have a related question. I noticed that Word 2003 does not have 'Save As
Type' Word 6.0/95. Is there a way I can save my Word document as Word 6.0/95.
Word 6.0/95 files are much smaller in size and that matters above all else as
we work over the network with large word documents.

Can I move a convertor file in place and edit registry settings to get the
'Save as Type' to appear in Word 2003?

Inputs are highly appreciated!

The dialog comes from the registry -
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Shared Tools\Text Converters\Import
and is associated with the particular version of the RTF import filter
installed at the time (or what was already installed on an updated machine).
The filters have been subject to change by security updates.

I wouldn't worry too much about this, unless you are having difficulty
opening old files on one or other of these platforms.

I have installed Word 2003 in 2 machines. In one machine, in the
"Save As type" combo box in the Save As dialog box, I have an item
"Word 97-2002 &
6.0/95 -RTF (*.doc)". But in the other machine, I see "Word 97-2000 &
6.0/95
-RTF (*.doc)" in its place. What is this difference due to?
