convert word documents to works..

Word takes precedence over the Works Word processor. You can still find
the Works Word processor the Microsoft Works folder. The exe is named
WKSWP.exe.

As Kevin suggests simply right click the EXE and create a short cut in
the desktop.

Eliminating the smallest value in a SUM formula

Posted: 08 Oct 2006 08:48 AM PDT

Hi Ian,

Michel offered you a solution in the works.mac Newsgroup based
on the list comprising of 21 entries whereby you SUM all the
entries e.g =SUM(A1:A21) and then deduct the MINimum value
obtained using MIN(A1:A21)

Thereafter, a formula to automatically use only the highest 20
values in the range is given by:

=SUM(A1:A21)-MIN(A1:A21)

If you require further assistance then please provide further details
of your spreadsheet's structure.

HTH,

alt or shift enter line feed

Posted: 07 Oct 2006 01:08 AM PDT

Hi,

I'm not sure to understand exactly what is your goal.
If your document is a database, and you want to remove line feeds in a
particular field, let's try the following procedure :
- display the database in the list view
- click the field name to highlight the field's data
- Edit > Copy (or Ctrl+C)
- open a new Works word processor file
- Edit > Paste (or Ctrl+V)
- Edit > Replace enter ^l in the search field and nothing in the replace
field
- click "Replace all"
Then you have just to copy/paste back in the database field
If I misunderstood your goal, then feel free to document your problem.

Regards.

Michel.

On-line Version of Works

I agree-my bSuite will always be free, unlike some online office
suites.

The task launcher cannot be customized in this manner. You can use the
Quick launch bar which ( to the right of the calendar in the task
launcher) lists the frequently used programs.

Hi,

What tool are you using to scan your machine? This would be helpful.

Yesterday the user was working, using PDFCreator as default printer. It

Maybe a printer driver issue? But as I said before, these are the
latest drivers from HP.
On the old W98 pc I used cdrom drivers which, being quite old, doesn't
include Windows XP drivers.
This is where I downloaded the drivers:
