It is just a problem that comes up from time to time, rather than an
extensive collection of documents arriving on my desktop in one go.
Most people in my department use Word, and, although I have OpenOffice,
I don't use it other than as a means of opening and converting the Word
and Excel files that come my way.

The current document is short, simple and I dealt with it by converting to
text and doing the formatting from scratch.  However, others will
probably want to edit it and I'm sure it will arrive back on my desk in
Word again, so a less manual method of conversion would be convenient.

Cheers,
Roger
