Summary:

TRANSFERRING WORD PROCESSOR FILES BETWEEN WORKS AND JAZZ
To transfer word processing files between Lotus Jazz and Microsoft Works, the Jazz files must be saved as text. Because text files do not retain any formatting (bold, underline, font changes, etc.), the document must be reformatted once it is opened in Works.

To convert a word processing document from Jazz to Works, do the following:


 * 1) Open the word processing document in Jazz.
 * 2) From the File menu, choose Save As.
 * 3) Click Text Only, give the document a name, then click the Save button to save the text file.

In Works, do the following to import the text file:


 * 1) Open Works.
 * 2) Click the Word Processor icon on the Open dialog box.
 * 3) Click the Import button.
 * 4) Select the appropriate file and click Open.
