Link to CTE

Notes on using Classical Text Editor

A text file with CET coding cannot be imported in that form directly into CTE. First it needs to be converted into a “CET style” Word document. This can be done by the VBA procedure “cet2Wd”, contained in ReconstrWit.dot, producing output that can be imported into CTE.

VBA Procedures for Word2000

Our procedures are stored in two templates, CETdot and ReconstrWitdot.  "CET.dot" contains macros useful in inserting CET coding. "ReconstrWit.dot" contains macros useful in reconstituting witness files from CET coded files and in other transformations of CET coded files.
