|
=======================
|
|
If you need to upgrade a bunch of files to work *without* conversion on OneDrive /Office365 / Word 20XX then you can use DocTo.
|
|
|
|
If you run docto on a directory to the latest version you can upload to OneDrive and then you can open your Word files in OneDrive and edit without conversion. You need to use the following additional parameters to your command line
