Thanks for this; going to lunch now to download this and hopefully, I can start transistioning some of my Word docs to the tablet now.

doc reader now works on the 08. However Graphics in the document dont show. I tried exporting it to pdf. Though it transported with graphics, the formatting was all out of whack.

Is there any other .doc reader which supports graphics in the document?

Well I had no trouble installing doc reader and antiword. But if I open a file from my XP PC through doc reader (from a shared folder) I see the doc file, can select it but then get a blank page.

If I open a local (internally stored on N810) file with say html append, doc reader then opens another box and asks if I want to convert it. I tried to txt and again got a blank page.

Any ideas?

BTW, I downloaded today so presumably got the latest version of each.

Both files were small and with no pictures.
