how do I convert Works DB files to Word
I just bought Microsoft Office Student/Teacher edition. I was using
Microsoft Works. My word processing documents all converted, but I can't get my database to convert. My spreadsheets converted also. Help |

Help 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 |

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). -- gordonATgbpcomputingDOTcoDOTuk To email me replace the obvious! |

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?

Then I think you're stumped unless you can get access to Works. there MAY be a converter available from a third party, have you tried doing a Google search? -- gordonATgbpcomputingDOTcoDOTuk To email me replace the obvious! |
