  i need to convert some file with .NJX extension to .doc
  any idea how to convert them? or any program that can do that?
  
  i tried using MS word to open those files but they show me some funny symbols.
  those .NJX files belong to NJStar. its a chinese software. something like MS word.
  i dont want to reinstall NJStar because i dont need it. i just want to retrive back the stuffs i wrote using NJStar a few years back.

  non-English languages require a different set of symbols from the English alphabet, non-English FAQs will need to be written up as NJX, DOC, ...

  try copying all the .NJX text over to a word doc then change:
  
  Tools > Set Language > Chinese
  
  see if it works

  Nt sure what your problem really is. But sometimes i run into problems where ppl used chinese input from other developers to write things. Microsoft will not be able to read them if you do not have the software.
  
  What I do is i save them (messy and funny characters) in a text file (use the one came with Windows Xp, not MS Word). Then, right click on the file and choose open with IE. IE is very universal and should not have problem reading it. However, if it is still in funny characters, just click View ---> Encoding ---> choose Chinese Simplified or Chinese Traditional.
  
  This never fails me. Hope it will help.
