Convert Appleworks to Word documents

As usual, this seems like it should be straight forward, but I am stuck.

I'm trying to convert many Appleworks word documents to Microsoft Word documents with Automator.

So far I can open each item in Appleworks and get the "Save As" dialog box.

I don't see a way to have Appleworks save as "Word Mac 98, 2001 document" format.

I'm thinking that I may need to insert an Applescript in here, but I can't make any headway with Applescript. (A limitation of my brain - not Applescript.)

I have looked for a pre-made Automator workflow that would do this, but the closest I have gotten is a workflow that converts a text file to a doc file. These files are cwk files.

Any ideas?

Steve
