Is there some (simple) way to copy my Work Menu contents and Style definitions from Word 3.2 to Word 4.0? This is the one (well, 2 :) obstacles preventing my making extensive use of Word 4.0, since it is so much easier to use my already-customized 3.2 version.

'layout' things (columns etc.) will probably not translate nicely. You will have to redo the menu customization, but you would want to anyway since word 4's menu customization is so much more powerful.

Actually, side-by-side columns will translate very nicely, and are fully editable until you convert them into a real Word 4 table (although there's no going back to side-by-side once you do).
