Hi Gordon -
Well ... you see the problem is that WORKS is gone. I've already done the
"Quickrestore" on my computer. So the CD that I'm downloading my DB files
from has copied them in WORKS format and now I have Microsoft Office w/ Word.

Hmmm.... am I dead in the water?

In Works, use "Save as" in both cases


Hi Gordon - could you please be more specific. I have the files downloaded
into "My Documents" - when I open them (the DB ones) - the message I get is
"not valid". Please how I save them "save as" ... what?
Thanks - Jane


I think you have to open the database files in Works and then save the
database in a different format. perhaps the function is Export? (I
haven't got Works so I'm not sure).
