[comp.sys.atari.st] Request For Microsoft Write Format

nrc@cbnews.ATT.COM (neal.r.caldwell..ii) (12/15/89)

Can somebody send me a description of the .DOC file format used by
Microsoft Write for the ST?

I'm tired of not being able to use Thunder to spell check my MS Write 
.DOC files.  If you make corrections in a .DOC file with THUNDER.PRG 
and save it Write will usually refuse to load the corrected file.  Ack!  

I'd like to write a program that would fix MS Write files after
Thunder is done with them.  I've had a look at the .DOC format and
it looks like it's a bear so this idea is going nowhere without
some information on the file format.
