I agree with the others...converting a large group of documents from Frame
to Word just doesn't make sense. It's regressing instead of progressing.
Don't hit them over the head with what a bad idea it is...but present
all the factual evidence and hope they will listen. I can't think of
any feature that Word does better than Frame and this decision will
probably end up costing them more in the future when they realize their
mistake.
Good luck.
