If all else fails, install a generic text printer on port FILE:, then print
the documents to that. You'll end up with plain text files (extension .prn)
which Word can read.

I have some old Multimate Advantage documents that I want to convert to
Word.
My research shows that filter was removed after Word 6.0. I have both
Office 2000 and Office XP. Neither will open the files. I have opened
them
with the original MM software and they are intact.

I have found web sites that will convert my files for a fee.

Is there a converter available I can download or purchase? Does Microsoft
have a tool? I have loaded ORK and installed the Office Converter Pack
with
it with no luck. Maybe I don't know how to use it.

Thanks in advance.

P.S. Getting a 5 1/4 drive installed and working under XP Pro was my first
big obstacle. All that is left is the conversion.
