Memory? I guess you mean files from the hard disk.

Anyway do you have works on your new XP or only Excel ?

Excel 2003 for example will read works 2.0 files
So you should be able to open them with you new Excel

What are you viewing the old documents with ?

Ok here it goes. I have recently purchased a new computer and had all
the
old computer memory transferred to the new PC. The old worked off of
Windows
98SE and the new is in XP with Office. How can I view an old document
that
was done in Works (spreadsheet) on the new system? I tried to open it
but
got lost in the process of attemping to transfer from old to new via the
popup screens asking questions about what I wanted to do. I thought
that I
followed the steps correctly but now if I view the old document it comes
up
with the correct information but with a lot of extra...let me call it
coding
for I am not sure what it really is....stuff along with it. Can I fix
this
so that I can read any "old" works document?

Thanks for any help!
