Exchanging Information with MS Word 

You can import and export information to and from and MS Word for Windows 97.  Macros to provide this facility are contained in an 'UNSUPPORTED' directory on the production CD . These can be used with to transfer information between BPwin and MS Word.  If you attach a new MS Word file to the Nodetree.dot template, MS Word creates one files 'Nodetree.doc'. You can enter node tree and definitions directly into these files, and then spell check, organize your activities hierarchically in your node tree outline, and proofread, print, and distribute the documents for comment. After you have entered the data, you can export the Nodetree.doc  file to tab-delimited text file. This can  then be imported to BPwin via the File Import options.
