Hi knubee

I am sorry I do not know the answer to view .docx as text but I would like
your help please to show me how to use no-word.el with antiword to view .doc
files!?

This is my .emacs code but I keep getting a message saying 'antiword' is not
recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch
file.



<<<<<

;;;;==========View .DOC with no-word.el & antiword====================

;;;

;;requires antiword

(add-to-list 'exec-path "C:\\antiword\\antiword.exe")

;(require 'antiword)

(load "C:\\Users\\Dad\\Emacs\\emacsaddons\\no-word.el")
 
(autoload 'no-word "no-word" "word to txt")

(add-to-list 'auto-mode-alist '("\\.doc\\'" . no-word))

;==

 >>>>

I am grateful for any help with this, many thanks
