Thankyou David I will file this away for when we are looking to convert some of our existing Megadots files across into Duxbury when we want to retranslate them into UEBC.

You can then load the HTML file into DBT. WOrks in reverse as well. You lose a lot of the special formats of each program, but you get to keep the basics, paragraph layout, italics, atc. -- David Holladay At 04:36 AM 4/12/2006, you wrote: >Although a .meg file from Megadots couldn't be imported into Duxbury, it >can be imported into WordPerfect for those of us who prefer to edit >directly in a word processor. >Catherine > > >--------------------------------------------------------------------------- --- >-Catherine Thomas >braille@xxxxxxxxx / > >--------------------------------------------------------------------------- ---- >* * * >* This message is via list duxuser at freelists.org. >* To unsubscribe, send a blank message with >* unsubscribe >* as the subject to <duxuser-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>.
