Hi Chris, I hope this won't sound like a brush off - far from it - but I'm going to ask that this topic be looked into in more detail once Duxbury's total focus comes off the current task of getting 10.6 released. (Which is already a month behind target.) Word for Windows itself has been showing up all kinds of "funnies" which have taxed resources almost to the extreme.

Let me restate the issue here. In the raw XML files, some characters appear to be in unicode. For example, a < sign shows as < and > is >. When I bring the file into XMetaL, a word processor, it handles the coversion from < to < and others as well. What is the recommended method for accomplishing this for Duxbury when bringing text from XML into Duxbury? Experimentally, I converted the text to HTMl and got < for <. However, I see no HTML templates for DBT. Thanks for any advice.
