-

The information in this article applies to:


 * Microsoft Word for Windows, versions 1.0, 1.1, 1.1a, 2.0, 2.0a, 2.0a-CD, 2.0b, 2.0c, 6.0, 6.0a

SUMMARY
The source code for the Rich Text Format (RTF) reader and/or writer mechanisms that exist within Word for Windows and other Microsoft products is not available for distribution to any party (corporate or end user) outside of Microsoft.

The source code does not exist in one segment of the Word for Windows .EXE file, but is instead intertwined throughout the entire executable file. Thus, in order for us to make this information available, we would have to publish the entire source for the Word for Windows executable; this is obviously inappropriate.
