Changing Preferences between Act! Word Processor and Microsoft Word
To change between Microsoft Word <-> Act! Word Processor, do this:
- Tools -> Preferences -> Communication
- Change Word processor to the other choice
This solves the problem of "I cannot find my templates" also. Act! Word Processor templates are .tpl file extension while Word templates are .adt.
Please note there is no conversion utility to automatically migrate between these formats.
