The information in this article applies to:
  • Microsoft Word for Macintosh, versions 5.0, 5.1

SUMMARY

Page 517 of the "Word 5 Companion" by The Cobb Group incorrectly states that a WordPerfect 2.0 for the Macintosh converter shipped with Word 5.0 and ships with Word 5.1.

Although this filter did/does not ship with Word 5.0/5.1, it is currently available as an Application Note from Microsoft (GC0804: "WordPerfect 2.0 for the Macintosh Converter").

NOTE: To use the WordPerfect 2.0 for the Macintosh converter, you must be running Microsoft Word version 5.0 or later.

For more information on the WordPerfect 2.0 for the Macintosh Application Note, query on the following:
