Hi, folks.
Is there any way to read in my linux box a word 7 .doc file?
Mantaining the indents and bolds would be a plus, but mainly I
just need to read the text in it.
I use StarOffice to read docs, but it only reads up to word 6 files

None that I am aware of. To my knowledge nothing reads word 7 except
word 7, even in Windows land. However Wordperfect is coming, and it
should be able to. I use the curent wp7 and it works nicely.

As far as I know, word 7 is part of Office 95 and has the same file
format with word 6 (which is part of Office 4.2). The latest version of
word is 8 (which is part of Office 97) and they changed the file format
again.
So if you can read word 6 format (like in StartOffice 4.03), you should
be
catdoc and wordview both work for me - isn't word 7 the one in orifice
