Works Database/Wordprocessor

What I am making is an estimate sheet. First column is quantity, then
description then the other two important columns are price and total...
Will need the quantity x price = total... then the total column adding
up at the bottom!
However... This needs to be part of a template with more than the
figures on there... Thanks for help...

Works 7 - address book

Posted: 17 Feb 2005 03:03 AM PST

Hello Indera -

For several years now, Works has used the Windows Address Book (aka WAB).
For example, if you completely remove Works from your system, the address
book will still remain.

Note - Works used to have it's own address book (based on the Works
database). For people who still have this old format, there is an "importer"
in newer versions of Works that will migrate your data.

Changing to no caps in whole column

The Joy you experienced, is the sharing of knowledge.
I found the same feeling in the past, when taking advice from
our resident MVP here, Mr. Kevin James.

Long may he remain :)



| YES!!! That worked...Thank you SO much.

Address Book/Contacts List

Posted: 15 Feb 2005 04:19 PM PST

Hi Davdor,

The Address Book you access from Works and Outlook Express is the Windows
Address Book which is included with it's operating system

If all you want to do is make a back up copy of it's data, perhaps save it
to a file folder then copy it to a floppy disk.

To are many ways open the Address Book....

Click Start on your desktop, select Programs, select Accessories, click
Address Book.

Click File on it's menu bar, select Export, click Address Book (WAB)...

In the Select Address Book File to Export to dialog popup, Select where you
want to save in, give the file a name, then click OK.

Copy the saved file to storage of your choice.

Ken
Note: there is various ways to accomplish this task, I only described one.

I am referring to address book & contacts list that appear in Works. I am
starting to suspect that what I see is normal for the way Works is designed.
It's only a minor nuisance. Only hope I can save it in some form so that I
don't have to retype it if my computer ever "bombs" or I replace it.

Empty field effects printing on form

Re: I thought about formatting the PO box field as text and then entering a
space character for the records that don't use a PO box. Would this work or
is there a better way?

Hi Michael,

Entering a space character will work.

If the suggestion in my previous post to uncheck "do not print blank lines"
in the printer dialog window is not possible due to conflict with other
lines in the data base records.

Putting a space character in the PO box field can be automated.

Create another Field in the database, this field to be used in the merge, it
will be a duplicate of the PO box field except if the record in PO box field
is blank it will have a "space character" in it.

Put this formula in the new field... =IF(PO box=0," ",PO box)

If the PO box field record is blank then "space" else equal PO box field
record.

Re: Could this be because the "do not print blank lines" is checked in the
printer dialogue window?

Yes, perhaps view the video in this knowledge base article.

Creatinf a recipe database on Works 7

Re: When I go to look for files I created, even word processor files, they
are
nowhere to be found unless I do a PC search.

Perhaps, after doing search, right click the file then click Open Containing
Folder, at the top of the screen will be the name of the folder your file is
in.

It seems I am not doing something correctly while trying to create a recipe
database. First, I want to create different categories like appetizers,
cakes, cookies etcc.. and then list the appropriate recipes under each
category.

I tried from the task launcher, and it's not listing any categories. Then I
went to the my project files and tried it from that standpoint and still no
use.

When I go to look for files I created, even word processor files, they are

Please help!!!!

Reinstalling Microsoft Work 6.0

Posted: 11 Feb 2005 03:31 AM PST

Hi Ernie,

Another thought..... when searching your computer was "Show hidden files and
folders" ticked, located on the view tab in the Control Panel Folder
Options.

Also, temporary uncheck "Hide protected operating system files".

Hi,

I've spotted one on Ebay for £1 so I may result to getting that one (as long
as I'm not getting ripped off!) Thanks! Seems like that is my only option.
