The online Help for ClarisImpact 2.0 implies that ClarisImpact can import and export Microsoft Word 6.0 format. Unfortunately, this is incorrect. ClarisImpact is able to read and save as Microsoft Word 4.0-5.0 format, but not 6.0.
Specifically, the online help topic 'Importing, placing and exporting files' includes a table that lists Translators and has checkmarks by 'Import' and 'Export'. It indicates that ClarisImpact supports Microsoft Word 6.0 in both categories.
Claris has not announced any plans of including a Microsoft Word 6.0 XTND translator and apologizes for any inconvenience caused by this error in the online help.
ClarisImpact owners who do extensive work requiring file transfers of Microsoft Word 6.0 may wish to contact DataViz, manufacturers of MacLinkPlus, a file transfer utility for the Macintosh. MacLinkPlus includes dozens of XTND translators that work with ClarisWorks, MacWrite II, and other Claris products that support the Claris XTND technology. DataViz also makes translators for use on the Windows platform.
