extracting 7_bit_ascii from ms_word files

[spellberg_robert]

thanks to everyone for their assistance.
thanks, especially,
   for reports of personal satisfaction
   with a particular solution.

it appears, now, that i had found everything
   that there is to be found, currently.
without the feedback, however,
   i would not know that.

i will give these ideas a whirl.

happy coding to all and
   to all a good compile.
