The following macro will convert all the doc files in a folder to RTF
Sub SaveAllAsRTF()
Dim strFileName As String
Dim strDocName As String
Dim strPath As String
Dim oDoc As Document
Dim Response As Long
Dim fDialog As FileDialog
Set fDialog = Application.FileDialog(msoFileDialogFolderPicker)
With fDialog
.Title = "Select folder and click OK"
.AllowMultiSelect = False
.InitialView = msoFileDialogViewList
If .Show <> -1 Then
MsgBox "Cancelled By User", , "Save all as RTF"
Exit Sub
End If
strPath = fDialog.SelectedItems.Item(1)
If Right(strPath, 1) <> "\" Then strPath = strPath + "\"
End With
If Documents.Count > 0 Then
Documents.Close SaveChanges:=wdPromptToSaveChanges
End If
strFileName = Dir$(strPath & "*.doc")
While Len(strFileName) <> 0
Set oDoc = Documents.Open(strPath & strFileName)
strDocName = ActiveDocument.FullName
intPos = InStrRev(strDocName, ".")
strDocName = Left(strDocName, intPos - 1)
strDocName = strDocName & ".rtf"
oDoc.SaveAs FileName:=strDocName, _
FileFormat:=wdFormatRTF
oDoc.Close SaveChanges:=wdDoNotSaveChanges
strFileName = Dir$()
Wend
End Sub
