= SUMMARY =

Word versions 2.x and 3.x provide a CONVERTD utility, which can convert a Lotus 1-2-3 spreadsheet (files with the extension .WKS) to either ASCII columnar text or a delimited text file. An ASCII text file then can be loaded into Word.

A spreadsheet printed to a file with the Lotus 1-2-3 Print File command also can be loaded into Word directly as an ASCII text file.

Word versions 4.00 and 5.00 provide for the direct incorporation of Lotus spreadsheets using the Library Link command.
