     Hi, Dale.  Quoting your message to me:
 DS> Do you know if there is any loss of info in RTF versus Word 6.0
 DS> or 7.0?  How about disk space (bigger or less?).
     The info in my previous msg came from a newspaper article about the
     problem, and Microsoft's fix.  The author states that "... the [RTF]
     document may be missing some of the formatting put in by the Word97
     user."  He makes no mention of relative file sizes.  However...
     
     I tried a test, using Word95.  I opened a word document (just over
     three pages, all text, 12-point Times Roman), then saved it in RTF
     format.  The RTF version wound up considerably smaller:
         Document.doc    19,456
         Document.rtf    12,445
