If the latter is the case, your download software should have the option of "multi session" (Nero)
or other language to that effect.

In Row 1 or Column A insert your own values. If you want them sequential,
use Edit : Fill Series.

Example: insert 1 in A1. Select several to the right then Edit : Fill Series
Select them all and Format Number : Leading Zeros : 3
Make them bold and centered.
Put the cursor in A2 and Format : Freeze Titles.

You can make any number of variations on this.

Hi Hans,

History Selection Crashes Work

Posted: 17 Nov 2006 06:29 PM PST

Hi Hans,

Perhaps reinstall Works..

Before reinstalling, cleanse the installer and works files from your
system

Details of the cleanse process is given here in items 3 to 7 (&8).
(Ignore other details).

Printing Envelopes from Filtered List

What is wkwbl.dll and how can I find it?

Posted: 16 Nov 2006 03:05 PM PST

HI Misty,

Perhaps this helps:

That WKWBL.DLL file may be corrupt.

You can manually replace it with files from the installation CD
( or WorksBkup folder - C:\Program Files\WorksBkup\Works Shared

Copy the file wkwbll.dll from one of the above locations and save
it to

c:\program files\microsoft works

and also copy to

c:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\Works Shared

The file may have been corrupted by installation the Office beta.

HTH,

Yes. Clearly it is not fully compatible with XP, however it does work fairly
well. Too bad we can't get Microsoft to recompile it.
