Instructions: Start the program. Drag text file(s) (.TXT, .HTM, .HTML, .CSV, .etc) or Palm DOC files (.PRC or .PDB) from your explorer into the open window. The program produces the corresponding converted file(s) in the same directory.

If it matters, the program will import "standard" Palm DOC files, which have a type of REAd and a creator code of TEXt, as well as cesinc's QuickWord files, which have a type of Qwrd and a creator ID of rTXT. Those interested in QuickWord should check out the QuickOffice web site. Please note that this is not an endorsement of the Quick Office suite, although I haven't had too many problems with their products or services.


There are more complex and configurable document converts for Windows out there, but none I have seen are near as simple and as quick to use. I hope you enjoy it.
