More Information:

Conversions that are not built-in to the Word for Windows .EXE program are provided through the use of conversion DLLs that are installed during setup. To include files that require these conversions, specify a within the INCLUDE field that names the converter file for the format of the document that is to be converted.

For example, to include a Microsoft Word version 5.5 file, you would insert the following field:

{INCLUDE \PATH\DOSWORD.DOC Word for DOS&quot;}

In this example, DOSWORD.DOC is the name of the document, and Word for DOS&quot; is the code that tells Word for Windows to use the Microsoft Word for MS-DOS converter CONV-WRD.DLL to convert this INCLUDE file.
