Hi John,

So would we all, but unfortunately we could then be faced with a price
increase to cover the cost of the development.

At the present time (and that could very well change in the future) the
tendancy has been to try and provide better and better importation
facilities from the most popular Word Processors such as Word and
WordPerfect.

However, this is a subject which is under constant review, and indeed
I'm optimistic that there will be some improvements coming to DBT's
editor, albeit relatively minor.
