Just entered an interesting ticket

User has files created in a word processor app called Amstrad (c. 1989) and wants them converted to MS Word.

Any leads?

open them in a plain text editor and delete the parts he doesn't like

I haven't used an Amstrad for years. Jet Set Willy & Manic Miner for the win!

lmao!!!!!!

Tech support is starting threads in ATOT for his own tech support??!
And, for something as simple as opening a file as a plain text document?!

edit: and not even in the software forum where it belongs? For shame!
