Word HTML filters
Hi,
XP Pro, SP2/fix, Office 2002, SP3, 2.6GHz, 512 Ram, 80gig+80gig (non RAID), no virus, no spyware/malware, all up to date. The MS web site has an HTML filter to remove the Word-specific stuff from web pages it creates. I just downloaded and installed it, but nothing changed. According to the site, there should be an "Export To" option added to the File menu. The file menu (actually all menues) are unchanged. I already had the SaveAs HTML(filtered) option listed, but did the download because it seemed to claim to remove more than the filter I already had. Is there a diffeerence between the missing "Export To" option and the Save As HTML(filtered) option? Also, I do not see anything that looks like the new HTML filter in the Add/Remove listing: Should it show there? Is there any way to get Word 2k2 to write code like win97 did? I'd really like to take Word97 off this machine. Any advice/assistance greatly appreciated. TIA, Pop --- I may or may not know what I'm saying, but if I have nothing to say, that's what I say! |

Hi Pop,
The MS web site has an HTML filter to remove the Word-specific stuff from web pages it creates. I just downloaded and installed it, but nothing changed. According to the site, there should be an "Export To" option added to the File menu. The file menu (actually all menues) are unchanged. To which folder did you copy/install the tool? I think you have to put it in the Startup folder for Word in order to see any menu entries. I may misremember, though. There was a chapter John McGhie wrote for our Word book (German market) that discussed how to use the tool with more recent versions of Word, and it does work. It's just not integrated as closely with the Word application window. Let's see, here's what we say, more or less: MSFilter.exe was designed to work with Word 2000, and will only install if Office 2000 is present on the machine(!); that may explain why you aren't seeing anything - it may not have installed. You don't HAVE to install it, however. You can copy MSFilter.exe to whereever you want to have it, then create a shortcut to it in the Start/Programs list. MSFilter.dot, the addin template, you should put in the Startup folder (as I mentioned, above), or you need to load it explicitly via Tools/Templates and Addins, when you want to use it.

Hmm, those sound like possibilities. I'll check more into that., and =
I'll go back and see if I missed something in the Install instructs. Thanks.
