How do I maintain formatting?
I'm using Word 2K and when I save as a .txt file all formatting is lost. I
use a Text to HTML converter prior to uploading to a website. How do I go about preserving the formatting so that the web doc looks like the one I created in Word? Best regards, -- VHH III |

Txt is plain text and that does not support formatting.
Html does support formatting, but its requirements are entirely different from those of a Word document and so there is little correlation between the two. You can view what the Word document will look like in html by using the Web view. -- Graham Mayor - Word MVP My web site www.gmayor.com Word MVP web site http://word.mvps.org "Virgil Hastings" wrote in message ...

That is notmal behaviour for TXT files, no formatting retained.
Use RTF format to keep format, beware though the file size can increase depending on what you have in the document.
