Alt characters
I have an "AltCharacater" doc. When I open the doc with Word2003, the
table shows Alt codes and also their equivalent special characters. Now when I open the same AltCharacter.doc, it prompts "File Conversion - Alt Character" box on the screen and all look gibberish. Something caused this problem. Please advise me how to fix this problem. OS is WinXP Pro -SP2 and I use Office Suite 2003. Roman |

If you mail it to me as an attachment (zipped up if possible), I might have a look. If I understand the objective of your AltCharacter.doc, maybe you could use the file you'll find as an attachment he http://www.wopr.com/cgi-bin/w3t/show...d&Number=77886 Regards, Klaus |

Klaus, I sent the Alt.doc as an attachment to your personal email account.
It seems that you did not receive it. I today found out that the Alt.doc was indeed corrupted. I pulled out the original Alt.doc from my archive. That was fine. Thank you again.
