Hi,

First of all OfficeVision never ran on the System/38.  If the documents are
in Text Management/38, we have a utility that will convert Text
Management/38 into Microsoft RTF.  

If they are In OfficeVision, it might be possible to convert spooled file
prints (from OfficeVision) into Text Management, and then write a simple
program to then put them into Text Management's source files, and from
there into RTF.  If you have any interest, e-mail back to private address.
