This probably isn't the answer you want but 1. WP corp has a developer's toolkit that has extensive info on file formats etc.... 2. If you only want a part of the info calling them sometimes will get it Faxed/modem'ed/or mailed to you (free) ----------------- B O R N T O C O D E !

In addition, there are several books on the market (no references in front of me) which describe file formats for _dozens_ of popular word-processing database and spreadsheet packages.
