Lotus .wks file support Excel 2007
 

In Excel 2007 old macros calling for Lotus file format (.wks) no longer
function. This has always worked up to version 2003. Anyone know a way around
this problem other than re-writing the macros to suit Excel 2007.

Currently keeping Excel 2003 in my arsenal to solve the problem.

Support for Lotus may be a discontinued feature. See here for a discussion
of deprecated features in XL 07:

I am well aware of it being droped from XL 07. I'm looking for a woraround
other than keeping XL 03 around for a long time.

There's no workaround. Either keep an old version of Excel to run 123
classic macros, or rewrite those macros. I doubt anyone's going to
write a 123 classic macro processor for Excel.
