Batch File Converter for Word Pro* AT
http://www.odpro.com/cgi-local/webdata_freebies.pl

This file migration tool allows a user to batch convert from any
readable Word Pro file type to any Word Pro savable file type. It will
also traverse sub-directories and can place the new converted files in a
new directory structure.

Installing / Using this Freebie:
* Place this file to a directory and open it in Word Pro. The
instructions are then displayed for your convenience.
* The Globals!Initialize event will load a new menu option off of the
File menu. (You must allow scripts to run when a document is opened for
this to work correctly.)
* Select this option, "Batch File Converter...", to see the application run.
* Display the Script or Dialog Editor to see the LotusScript and Dialogs
used to build this application.

You must have Word Pro 9.x for Windows installed to use this tool!
