Converting .ace to .docx:

Right click your .ace file and select open with ms office word. If Word does not come up you can browse to it and it will probably be about: C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office12\Winword.exe. Make sure you don't have "always open with this program" checked.

On the next screen, dot "Windows (default) and click OK.

It will have a lot of "t0", "r0" etc before the line you want. You can hold down the alt key while you select the letters you don't want. That lets you select just a column and not the entire line. The other option is to do a search and replace and leave the "replace" line empty. Have fun.
