- I have noticed a conflict between the WP 5.1 translator in Word 5 and
- the ~Access PC mounting utility. Both companies blame each other and
- refuse to admit that their software is responsible.
- If you are opening the file off a DOS diskette using Access PC consider
- moving it to a Mac diskette or hard disk before trying again.
-
- Another solution is to buy MacLinkPlus 7.0 and use the Word translators
- that they provide. They seem more reliable in some cases.
