I'm not too sure what Palm app you're trying to use -- but technically, the dumb way is to open up PalmDesktop for Mac, copy the text you want and paste it in a new memo. When you sync, it should show up on your Plam. -Allen On 1/26/06, ibooklist at matthurst.fastmail.fm <ibooklist at matthurst.fastmail.fm> wrote: > Does anyone have any ideas about a simple, quick (and preferably cheap) > way to convert text documents from OS X (Word/rtf/txt) to a format my > Zire 71 will understand?
