Yes, we have the Isogeochem Files page for that.  Also, why use the .doc
format?  It is native to only 1 wordprocessor and is susceptable to
viruses.  If .doc is OK why shouldn't I post attachments in WordPerfect
(or even WordPro or StarOffice or Gnome ... etc) format and place the
onus on the reciever to convert to their format.  Really we should use
generic formats like PDF, RTF or even good old plain TXT.

cheers,
