 Excellent suggestion Vinod.........
 I found a solution (external utility), called 'HyperView' (for OS/2).
 It's 32-bit and can be obtained from 'BMT-Micro' web site, or try
 searching a good BBS near you.
 I can't remember if they have a DOS or Windows version. It handles quite
 a lot of wp formats.
