A macro containing the following code will convert all of the files in the

Wow! Thanks Doug. Once I got rid of the carriage return after the & it
worked like a charm.

Modify the line of code that contains that folder name to suit where you
have the documents located.

Dim myFile As String
Dim PathToUse As String
Dim myDoc As Document
PathToUse = "C:\Test\"
Documents.Close SaveChanges:=wdPromptToSaveChanges
myFile = Dir$(PathToUse & "*.rtf")
While myFile ""
'Open document
Set myDoc = Documents.Open(PathToUse & myFile)
myDoc.SaveAs PathToUse & Left(myDoc.Name, InStr(myDoc.Name, ".")) &
"docx", wdFormatDocumentDefault
myDoc.Close
'Next file in folder
myFile = Dir$()
Wend
