Are you sure the file's ok? Mac Word 6.0 was notorious for being appalling
and driving customers to Corel in desperation. FYI Word 6.0 was the first
Word version to use a common file format across Windows and Mac.

If you post me the file I may be able to get it translated (at least to a
.sit file - if not a zipped RTF) and send it back.
