I'm using aspose.words (www.aspose.com) to extract regular expression
matches from multiple files within a folder. Unfortunately,
aspose.words does not support pre-Word 97 documents. How can i
retrieve the Word version of the .doc file, so i can avoid errors?

Thanks.
 
Without having word 97 on the machine I am not sure. The Aspose components
work without having word in the system so my guess i sthat they raed the
formats nativly.

Can't you just use the Aspose stuff and then catch the exception that gets
thrown?

Unless you can compare the 97 doc with a more current version and see what
you can read to and check it yourself before using the Aspose stuff.
