That script would work if I already hadthe files in HTML format. I have about two hundred .doc files that I have archived over theyears. Now that I'm rid of windows I would still like to use them. Ifigure that the easiest way to still view the documents, and make themavailable for others in my faculty, would be to publish them ondotancohen.com . However, I'd need to convert them from .doc format toHTML before I can put them on the web. I know that I can just drag it all over to a winbox at the universityand convert them one-by-one in Word, but I'd rather not do that to 200individual files! Dotan Cohenhttp://gmail-com.com56
