Re: Deleting diacritics from records

["Ewa Krysiak" <ekrysiak at bn dot org dot pl>]

  Amy,

  I do it like this. I am using a Telnet program called NetTerm, where I
have configured printing as Smart Print and have chosen my MS Word as a
default editing program in NetTerm:

  - print all entries in a review file,
  -  then instead of actually printing the file (I have an option, to print,
to edit, to quit...), I choose EDIT, and open it in MS Word, and change to
"retrieve from any format" when a dialog box appears
  - a file opens with all diacritics in place.

  I hope this helps, and good luck :)
