Versions 7 & 9 compatibity

Posted: 15 May 2009 06:43 AM PDT

jbcbussoft,
have you gone to the printer's manfacturer's website and see if there is an
updated driver for your printer. Especially if it is HP printer. There have
been some MS Office updates, that would also be installed if MS Works was on
the PC, that had caused problems with Excel and MS Works spreadsheet
programs, and some programs. Upgrading to MS Works 9 may not solve your
problems.

We don't have 8. The problem has to do with usb printers. We wish to

My question is more about the compatibility between works7 and works9
documents.

a

Opening a Works 4.5 database in Works 8.5

Posted: 07 May 2009 08:38 AM PDT


I see,
try the options offerred by the posters here then.
Just be aware you may regret going to 8.5, when you lose the
ease of use of 4.5a
Also, I believe files you open with 8.5 if you convert them
will no longer be able to be opened with 4.5a
You get caught between a rock and a hard place.

Personally I would remain with 4.5a and try to solve the printer problem
even if it meant purchasing a new printer
I use an old Canon i250, which was cheap, and it has never failed
(the cartridge replacements are expensive though, around $15 for black)
I haunt it auctions and sometimes one can pick up generic ink tanks
for around $1 each.

text format of dates in different languages

Posted: 05 May 2009 07:57 AM PDT

The keyboard languages aren't important.

When you change the regional settings in control panel, does the dialog
there show the correct long date format?

If your question is whether entering 1/2/2009 is January 2 or February
1st, in the US it's month/day/year but Europe it's day/month/year. So
depending on your regional settings, you should get different results.

Internally, Works stores the date as the number of days since January 1,
1900. So once the date is entered, changing the format won't change the
actual date, just how it is displayed.

Also be sure to close Works while changing the regional settings so that
Works is sure to puck up the current settings.

Database calculations

Posted: 29 Apr 2009 09:51 AM PDT

Hi Cyndi,

To can extend this principle by using the date as well as the time.

For instance:

Field1 holds the date for time 1 (Field2 below)
Field2 holds the time of day on day stored in Field1

Field3 holds the date for time 2 (Field4 below).
Field4 holds the time of day on day stored in Field3

Field5 holds the time difference in Hours and is calculated as follows
Field5 =((Field3+Field4)-(Field1+Field2))*24
*24 being the 24 hours in a day. (See Mike's message regarding units in
days).

Field 5 would be used in calculations regarding the interval between the two
times.

For display purposes, to create Hours and Minutes will require extraction of the
hours and minutes separately and casting to strings values to concatenate these
to display Hours and Minutes.

For example:

Field6 can extract the Hours using the formula
Field6 =INT(Field5)

Field7 can extract the Minutes (as minutes) from the interval value using:
Field7 =(MOD(Field5,Field6))*60

Field8 can display "hours and minutes" using:
Field8 =STRING(Field6,0)&":"&STRING(Field7,0)

Microsft Works 2009

Posted: 27 Apr 2009 09:21 AM PDT

According to http://www.microsoft.com/works, Works v9 is the latest
version. So what version is Works 2009? Works v10?

spelling and grammar check

Posted: 26 Apr 2009 07:36 AM PDT

Some people have found a spell checker problem between Works 9 and
Office 2007, especially when Office is installed after Works.

If you have the install media for Works, uninstall it and then reinstall
it.

If Works came installed from the factory, you are in a bind.

Works 8.5 - unable to copy and paste

Posted: 18 Apr 2009 04:01 PM PDT

I have been experiencing the same problem. I just updated IE to IE 8 and the
problem appears to be gone. I just copied John 1 from Biblegateway.com into
my word processor, and copied a three page document into an email. All seems
to be back to normal.

Where do I turn off the underlining of a web address

Posted: 13 Apr 2009 08:54 PM PDT

I have no idea what option Ronald is talking about. It might be
something specific to whatever version of Windows he is running.

As for both the Works Word Processor or MS Word, the setting is under
the Autocorrect options of the program.

As for the Qwest mail program, you'd have to check with them to see if
they have such an option.

MS Works 7.0 and a 64-bit processor

Posted: 11 Apr 2009 09:11 PM PDT


I might have bought the theory if I had not successfully installed 7.0 on
an Acer with Vista. The HP (the one with the 64-bit proc) is the one that
is making me crazy and the difference in the procs was the only thing I could
come up with.

-- Works 9 was installed by Dell when I got it. May it is just corrupted.
One problem is I have to copy to 3.5 disk, computer has no cd burner, then I
have to copy that to cd on another computer.
