2.1 Overview
This section describes how text files can be edited using Microsoft Word 2000.
Word 2000 does not edit text files
directly. Instead, it converts them to
Word files upon opening.
During saving Word can then convert
the edited text back into a text file.
We recommend saving an additional
version of the text file as a Word file
and using this version as the basis for
future editing.
It is then no longer necessary to open
and convert the file.

2.2 Creating a new text file
Create a new text file in the usual way, using one of the following methods:
• In Windows Explorer click on the command "File"  "New"  "Text File".
• Launch Notepad without a file. A new empty file is then opened.
Then select the command "File"  "Save".
• Make a copy of an existing text file you wish to use as a template for the new
text file.
Now open the text file with Word 2000/ 2003 in the way described in the next
section.
