I have no idea where this thread went, but someone asked about copy/pasting outlines from Word into OmniOutliner not too long ago and OmniGroup answered. It can be done - just ensure you don't have anything selected prior to the paste (otherwise the Word outline will be pasted as text within a child). The only thing I don't remember is how to get rid of the focus ring once you have clicked the ooutline - Esc doesn't do it... FWIW, OmniOutliner already exports as rtf or other Word compatible formats.

The logical extension would be to allow import of Word formats too. Going back, however, has one major problem - at least as far as I can tell - it isn't possible to have additional columns in the Outline feature of Word.
