WordPerfect will convert ASCII, but I believe that WordPerfect will also
convert Displaywrite 4 files.  You may be able to skip the ASCII part.  That
would be helpful since someone will probably have to spend some time
reformatting the document once converted no matter how you get it into
WordPerfect.

FYI: Sometimes it's easier just to retype the documents.
