"Unexepcted Error-Quitting" Windows Vista Specific error.

Right-click the program icon and set to "run as an administrator".

How Do I convert WordPerfect Documents, or other document types, it doesn't really convert them.

To convert Wordperfect for example, first select the 'MS Word' conversion method.  Now, be sure that MS Word is installed and that you can open the file type you want to convert within MS Word.  Typically WordPerfect cannot immediately open within MS Word without first installing the necessary file filter.  You can remedy this problem by simply opening up the document type in question within Word.  Word will prompt you to install the necessary module.  Also, you can run the installation for MS Office and add the necessary file filters for MS Word.

Images are lost when converting to other formats

If you are working with MS Word documents, the images may be OLE objects, and not truly images.  Please insert the images as images and it will work fine.

I get the following error when I run from the command line

"'ConvertDoc' is not recognized  as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file."

Important: To use the command line successfully you must do one of the following:

A)    (Preferred method) Specify the full path to the executable. For example:

"c:\program files\Softinterface, Inc\Convert Doc\ConvertDoc.EXE" /J"D:\My Conversion Job Files\AcctBatch.SII"

Alternatively if using a batch file you might try something like this:

set ConvertDoc ="c:\program files\Softinterface, Inc\Convert Doc\ConvertDoc.EXE"

ConvertDoc /J"D:\My Conversion Job Files\AcctBatch.SII"

B)    Set the path in your environment variables to the location of ConvertDoc.EXE

Otherwise, you'll see the following error:

"'ConvertDoc' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file."
