Hi Chris, just courious of what Describe looked like, I've installed it on my OS2 virtual machine. It saves file in .dwp (Describe Word Processor format file) and .sam as well (Ami Pro 1.0 - 2.0).
These two format can both be opened by Starwriter (suite Staroffice 5.1), which then can save files in .doc (MS Word 97) format.
I already have Staroffice.
If they're not many files to be converted, send me just one to try with, for testing a final .doc conversion and see what will the result be.
