Hi Kevin,
Thanks for your help.
I looked at the site and took cold feet- I am not comfortable using strange
instructions with no clear idea what I am trying to do. However I have added
it to my favourites and perhaps will have the courage later!
Regards
Blair

Works suite add-in for Microsoft Word

Posted: 28 Sep 2004 02:37 AM PDT

Here is a knowledge base article which recommends removing Microsoft Works
Suite Add-in for Microsoft Word.

Hi Nigel,

I used Works Suite 2001 for about six months without 'Microsoft Works Suite
Add-in for Microsoft Word' installed. Via this news group someone provided
the following knowledge base article.

Works Suite: Word Is Missing from the Task Launcher
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=KB;en-us;Q309499

Prior to using the knowledge base article to install Works Suite Add-in I
had no problem with either Works or Word. In fact for quick access to Word
I had placed a shortcut to the program on my desktop, which I still use
today instead of going thru the Task Launcher.

Hello

I am currently using a piece of software that interacts
with Microsoft Word for Mailmerges.I have Microsoft Works
6.0 installed. Within Control Panel | Add or Remove
programs there is an item 'Microsoft Works Suite Add-in
for Microsoft Word'.

With this 'works add-in' present my piece of software
doesn't work when it isn't present it works fine.

Before I remove it:
1. What does this add-in do for Microsoft Word / Works.
ie will word word without it?
2. Will this cause any serious problems if it is removed.

Mail Merge, Filters, and Works 6.0

Hi Ken

I went back into MS Works Word Processor and found the
article by typing "mail merge." As I reread the
instructions, I realized the Help meant to check Tools in
the Word Processor, not the Database. DUH! I am humbled
and thank you for pointing me back to the documentation.

Microsoft Works & Excel

Windows XP is the operating system. It does NOT include Office, Works or other
applications.

If you want Office, you need to buy Office. There is an Office XP but it's not related to
Windows XP other than that's one of the versions of Windows that it will run on (Office XP
runs on Win98 or newer.). The latest version of Office is Office 2003.

If you just need Word (not Excel, Outlook, etc.), you can get the Works SUITE which
includes Word. The regular Works does not include Word.

Some PCs comes with Works and/or Office installed. But that was a decision of the PC
manufacturer. They are not part of Windows.

E-mailing documents

Posted: 27 Sep 2004 06:22 AM PDT

Hi Amber,

This is a problem were the sender has to know what program the receiver is
going to use when opening an attachment. Not all programs open other
program files.

Or, receiver has not installed converter that opens other program files.

For instance, on the menu bar of Works Word processor click File, then click
Save As, click the down arrow for Save as type. Notice the various
extensions for different programs.

I find most if not all Word processor programs can open a file with .rtf
(Rich Text Format) extension. You might try saving your document with .rtf
extension, then attach that file to the email.

The problem is: the program that extracts the data from the wdb file to
make a mdb file cannot read the results of formulas, nor the formatting
of numerical data. If MS had chosen to extract the data into a csv file
(the program for this is in MSWorks already) all would have been well.

If you use a flat file like Works does, you could download
openoffice.org from www.openoffice.org and use the spreadsheet for your
data. These can be merged into its wordprocessor without loss of formatting.

Hi Nick,

Perhaps ?

Multiply your Y values by -1, plot these new values.

Thanks Johnny. Your characterization of my motive is correct. I attempt your

Huh.

Well I'm afraid that taps out my ideas here. You might try sending some
email to Works support and having a conversation with them. There is
probably something unique about your setup that is causing this, and they
can probably work through the details with you.

Sorry we couldn't set this straight for you on the NG.
