HoTMetaL PRO 4.0 will import Word 95 and Word 97 documents directly and
convert them to HTML.
It will also follow links between Word 97 documents in the site
management tool, the Information Manager.
It creates 100% structurally sound HTML, which means you won't ever be
"trapped" by HoTMetaL PRO, because the HTML is not full of proprietary
markup.

I've used HoTMetaL PRO for a year or so, now on version 4.0. Very
impressed, and as the previous note stated it is IMPOSSIBLE to create
structurally wrong documents.
