Convertion of Star Office documents to Microsoft Office
I was recently forced to upgrade to a new computer, with Vista installed.
Much of my previous hardware and software won't run under Vista. This includes Star Office 7. I have a number of documents and spreadsheets, that I need to view. Is there a free convertion utility, that will let me read them in MS Office Home & Student 2007 (or anywhere else for that matter). |

Convertion of Star Office documents to Microsoft Office
As far as I know, Star Office files can be opened directly in Excel
I don't know if 2007 supports this or not. Gord Dibben MS Excel MVP On Thu, 24 Jul 2008 13:54:03 -0700, SJM wrote: I was recently forced to upgrade to a new computer, with Vista installed.

Convertion of Star Office documents to Microsoft Office
I'm not sure if this will work or not either as I haven't tried the latest
version of OpenOffice - available free from www.openoffice.org -- but the price is right for giving it a try. "SJM" wrote: I was recently forced to upgrade to a new computer, with Vista installed.

If not, ... well, you could get a version of star office (or open office) which runs on vista, open the files with that and again, 'save as' ...
