Using EXCEL 2003 how do I open a Lotus Approach 9.5 database?
My old computer used Lotus Approach 9.5 and I saved files on a disk. That
computer no longer works. I need to open these APR databases in my new computer using Office 93 small business. |

I don't believe you can do it. You would probably need to save the file as
an Excel file from within Lotus Approach (which I realize you can't do easily at this point). -- Vasant "JHB" wrote in message ... My old computer used Lotus Approach 9.5 and I saved files on a disk.

You're going to have to try to install SmartSuite on your new PC to access these APR files. The only alternative would be dedicated file conversion software like DataViz's Conversion Plus, but buying SmartSuite 9.7 or 9.8 would likely be cheaper if you no longer have your SmartSuite 9.5 disk(s). |
