- The file is opened in Word 95 using the Word 97 Import Converter.
- In Word 95, the OLE object is edited in the Picture Editor, saved
in Word 95 format, and then closed.
- The file is opened in Word 97, saved in Word 97 format, and then
closed.
- The file is opened in Word 95 using the Word 97 Import Converter.
