Actually you don't need to convert them. Just add the compatibility pack from Microsoft to your installed version of office http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=941b3470-3ae9-4aee-8f43-c6bb74cd1466&displaylang=en

(If you're using OpenOffice, the impending version 3, beta should be available, is also compatible)

Is there any way of just converting from Lotus or Word Star, etc. into Office formats ?

Hi I find this site to be the best, no email addy required and hundreds of file formats:

http://media-convert.com/

Just upload the file via your PC or URL and download it in the format you want a few mins later.

I have a very precious video file which has somehow been converted to a dip file. I cannot find any way of converting this file back to a file that I can see again. I wouldnt mind, but it is a special memory which I can never get back again and so really want it back again. Can anyone advise me how to do this, I have tried everything I can think of and tried so many file converters all to no avail up to now?

I would be so grateful if anyone can help.
Thanks
