Default rtf files

I use and save files in the rtf format, not the doc format. But every
time I use Word to open a file, it has to "convert" the rtf file,
which takes forever. How can I bypass this conversion process.
Thanks, CMA


You can't. RTF is not the format that Word uses internally, so by saving in
that format you've made it necessary for Word to do a conversion in order to
display and edit the document.
