was wondering if anyone know if kword in the future will be able to open up msoffice docs. it looks very promising as a nice word processor. I see the file type of msoffice 97 when you go to open a file but it does not open/recognize the file format yet.

thanks maybe there is a mail list for the kde office products that I can ask this in, anyone know the list name/address to subscribe to.
We were discussing this at work today... looking for solutions to the problem we will be facing with Office/Windows XP. If KOffice could read/export MSOffice formats like StarOffice can, there would be a serious business case to move over to KOffice. Anyway, you can find quite a bit of helpful information on http://www.koffice.org including a secion on filters and what is happening with them. C.
