scrap2rtf

One of the problems faced by system administrators that install OpenOffice in company, it is wrong saved documents or scrap.

Scrap of document (Shell Scrap Object File) is the OLE-container containing a RTF-document. Unfortunately, at this time OpenOffice is not able to automatically detect and open scraps.

One or more files can be converted to RTF manually, but what if the scraps of dozens or even hundreds? This program allows you to convert many files in batch mode.
