From your home computer, save the file in Rich Text Format, or in any of the
Word formats (not Macintosh) or any of the Word Perfect formats.

Sort or Reorder Projects

Posted: 20 Jan 2006 06:49 PM PST

This does not seem to be a very good way of accomplishing it. Is there a
registry entry or a file that can be edited to sort projects by name or to
reorder them. If not this would be a very useful change in a future update
of Works.

Help With Graphing

Thanks so much for your help.
I also figured out that you could change the frequency that the horizontal
axis is labeled. So, I'm able to use the other chart patterns now and get a
nice date display.

AutoCorrect Erro

Posted: 16 Jan 2006 04:56 PM PST

There is an autocorrect list somewhere in your machine which stores the
replacements corrosponding to misspelled words. Somehow skbeaird@ has
a replacement which is :Scabbard@ and this is what is causing trouble.

Are you seeing this in Outlook express OR in Works Word processor?

copying txt files into MS Works WP 7.0

Posted: 16 Jan 2006 06:19 AM PST

Re: The save location was C: as a Works 7.0 file.

Hi Anthony,

Normally the default save location is My Documents, wonder why yours is "C:"
???

Anyway, in the Save As dialog you can specify any save location by clicking
the down arrow for Save in:

After you saved the WordPerfect file as a Works 7.0 file, can you then
double click the new Works 7.0 file, does it open with Works Word Processor?

I do not understand what you mean, "when I open Works Word Processor i want
the new file to be listed with the existing files", perhaps you can provide
more info as to where the files are listed. I have Works 6.0, it should not
be much different then your 7.0.

| Hi Ken
|
| Your first two paragraphs are correct.
|
| The save location was not "My Documents".

Just a FYI for strange behaviour.

Posted: 14 Jan 2006 07:26 PM PST

Hi Kevin,
no, I haven't.
I have had my Canon i250 for some time.
I will however, check for new drivers
and also re-install MSWorks, if I can find my original CD. :)

Thanks

I still think I am the only one who after 8 years cannot
solve the other problem of a sticking cursor, when opening
a file for the first time for the day.
I always have to re-site the cursor with the mouse
a keyboard stroke will not shift it.
So probably a problem with my old banger and video card or something.








| Hi Rodney,
|
| Have you changed your printer during this time?
|
| Anyhow, you may want to check/change the printer driver.

Work 8 - can't open pre 2000 files ?

Posted: 14 Jan 2006 10:32 AM PST

Thanks for your interest.

When I click on the file name in Explorer, Works opens but then displays the
message:-
'Works cannot open "C:\documents and settings\My Documents\oldfile.wps". The
file may be in use by another application, the file format may not be
supported by any of teh installed converters, or teh file may be corrupt.'

Same happnes if I navigate to the file in the Works Word Processer "Open
File" panel. This happens for every pre-2000 .wps file, but never for more
recent files. The pre-2000 files can, in every case, be openen by Works 4.5
(under WinME) on my other PC, and if I jsut open them htere ans then save
them with no specific moodification so they get a 2006 date, them Works 8 can
open them ...

These files would actually have been created by the computer previous to
either current machine, not sure waht version of works (works 3 perhaps ??)
under Win 98, but files created this way during early 2000 (prior to theWorks
4.5/WinME PC being purchased at teh end of 2000) do NOT give teh problem.
