Microsoft Works Calendar 6.0

Hi "anonymous",

Perhaps the Mswkscal.wcd file is located in this folder:

C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Microsoft\Works

These utilities clear the way prior to a Works reinstall:

Works crashes my PC

older versions of Works (6.0?) have a "web update"
feature that tries to go up to the internet to check for
updates. Perhaps this and the firewall don't like each
other? see if you can turn off the web update, check the
Task Launcher for an Options dialog or something. I
don't have the old one anymore, so can't check.

Works Suite 2000 and XP Home

I'm wondering; did you actually open the KB Article and
see this?
CAUSE
This behavior can occur when both of the following are
true:
The original .wks spreadsheet file has a backup file; it
is the same file name but with a .bks extension.
-and-
The .bks file is open when you save the .wks file.
NOTE: This error message is incorrect because Works is
actually unable to access the .bks file, not the .wks
file.
RESOLUTION
To work around this issue, follow these steps:
Switch to the .bks file.
On the File menu, click Close.
Switch to the .wks file.
On the File menu, click Save.
Now that the .bks file is closed, Works is able to save
the changes made in the .wks file.

Thought you might have read only the paragraph of the
results page generated by your search.

Sympathizer and Ken: I thank you both for your help. I
tried the remedy in the Michael Stevens Web site, and the
remedies in the other sites he listed. No success. I am
trying to get a satisfactory answer from HP. If I cannot,
I will try the solution at:

Importing

As I recall on a WindowsXP system mswkscal.wcd is located...
C:\ Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Microsoft\Works.

Also think Application Data is a hidden folder on WindowsXP. Assure "Show
hidden files and folders" is ticked on the View tab via folder options.

On the WindowsMe system I am on at this time, mswkscal.wcd is located...
C:\WINDOWS\All Users\Application Data\Microsoft\Works.

As I recall on a WindowsXP system it is located...
C:\ Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Microsoft\Works.

By that I mean that I went to the CD and copied the file,
mswkscal.wcd into the directory C:\Program Files\Common
Files\Microsoft Shared\Works Shared, and I found that two
things occurred. First, the file didn't replace anything,
because mswkscal.wcd never existed in this directory in
the first place. Second, the problem of the old calendar
database still existed pervaded. I reinstalled Microsoft
Works 6.0 into the default directory, by the way, after
manually erasing all its traces after uninstallation via
add/remove programs.
 

Works Task Launcher Link to Streets & Trips Broken?

Posted: 26 Jun 2004 07:58 AM PDT

problem here is that the version of Works you have uses a
different task technology than S&T 2004. Suite 2004 has
a new Task Launcher and so S&T 2004 matches it.

Works 8.0 would work with you're version of S&T. Or
Suite 2005 has newer versions of S&T and the other
applications (except Word is still same).

replace text in table

Posted: 24 Jun 2004 04:09 PM PDT

Well, I worked on this for an hour or so and found the
problem as follows...when i replaced the paragraph marker
(a special character in the replace drop down list), it
not only replaces the paragraph markers (indicated by a
paragraph symbol) but also replaced the hard return
symbol that the word processor uses to signify end of
data in a table column. When these are replaced, the word
processor hangs. Solution was to manually delete the
paragraph symbols (find/replace one at a time), but leave
the hard returns. Conversion from table to database was
completed sucessfully. The paragraph markers must be
deleted or the file converter starts putting the table
columns in the wrong database fields during file
conversion. Originally, I created the paragraph symbols
in the table (via enter key) to create new lines within a
column.

Hi Philip,

Interesting problem, perhaps uninstall - reinstall will help.

You may also want to run the Works Clean-up Utility.

Ken, Thanks, but that is the problem; I cannot save as
in any other format besides Works. I have tried every
available pulldown in "save as" and the system reverts to
a Works format. Somehow the system seems to be
corrupted. Perhaps I need to re-load the s/w. Any
advise? Thanks, Phil

Inserting Text on an Image

Dear Josh,

text frames are not transparent. What you could do, is a writing in a
Wordart frame. It is transparent, and you can do with the characters as you
like. Don't forget to go to format, object and make the picture and wordart
frame floating.

Erik.
