Try using the Formatted Text, Windows ANSI (*.prf) option.
This will then open in Word
However you will get a carriage return at the end of each print line.
There is not really easy solution to this one that I can see.

Hi, I hope someone can please help me.
I am using DBT10.6 and Microsoft Word.
I have a large BRF file. I need a portion of it in print as a microsoft
word file.
I have opened DBT,
Have opened my BRF file which has opened into a DXB file.
Next I have cut and pasted the required paragraphs out of that file and
into a new DXB file.
I then translated the new DXB file using CTRL-T and got a properly
formatted DXP file.
I now need to save this in such a way that it can be read by Microsoft
Word.
I have looked at the Save As options but am not sure what (if any) of
these I should be using.
I have also tried to cut and paste the DXP file into a blank word file but
the result requires considerable cleaning up and is not appropriate unless
there is no other way.
any help will be appreciated- I'm certain there must be a more
satisfactory way of doing this but I cannot work it out.
Regards and thanks
Christine
