Removing Works Suite 2000

Posted: 08 Sep 2004 01:54 PM PDT

Hi Richard,

Perhaps this helps:

"Setup Is Unable to Remove Earlier Version" Error Message
When You Try to Install Works 7.0 or Works Suite 2003.
http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=816273

Ignore item No. 7 - the reinstall.

Can't Find Product Key

Posted: 07 Sep 2004 06:34 PM PDT

If there is a product key on the machine,
(which I doubt in your case)
All info can be mined by the free utility "Belarc Advisor"
http://www.belarc.com/free_download.html

I don't subscribe to putting a lot of junk on the HDD
but this little beauty offers an opportunity to finger print
your entire system.
Ideal when seeking advice on newsgroups where
the type of machine/cards are required.
it mined my Works number in about 50 seconds

Hi bsilverfox,

Perhaps this helps to convert your Works database.

Works Suite 2005

Posted: 06 Sep 2004 10:39 AM PDT

No Word 2003 is why I'm sticking with Suite 2003.
OTOH Works suite's other components can run on W98 and up and word 2003
requires XP
But they could have offered a free or extremely subsidized (like pay for
shipping only) upgrade for XP users who get Works suite 2005 to get word
2003 upgrade
Wehn I had the prerelease version Word 2003 intergrated fine within Works
suite

A widescreen edition of a movie presents the film frame as it was seen in
the movie theater. This is the version that best preserves the filmmaker's
original intent.

overtype in Works 7

Posted: 06 Sep 2004 10:25 AM PDT

In the bottom, right hand corner of your word processing screen, you will
see "OVR" in a box. Double-click on it. It will turn off the over type
that is driving youi nuts. You proabably hit the keyboard command for it by
mistake.
