Works vs Office for Adobe ??

Posted: 10 Jul 2009 11:03 PM PDT

I understand ... but have had trouble in the past with programs not working
because I had not activated Office Suite ... then I discovered I can
sometimes use something else to open them (Works, for example), and they
work just fine --- was just wondering if this will be the case with Adobe
.... will soon find out ... thanks for your reply

unable to copy and paste from Excel to Works

You receive error "can't paste the contents here" when pasting into NotePad?

Works is a conglomeration of various programs, such as word processor,
spreadsheet, database and etc..

Which are you pasting into?

Have you installed the latest Works 9 updates from

See the workaround section of this knowledge base article.
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/933828/

Also you should upgrade to Works version 4.5a.

Works 4.0 & 4.5 - Year 2000 Update (English)
http://www.microsoft.com/products/works/downloads.mspx#EnglishY2K

Note: this update includes several patches to resolve some problems in
version 4.5.
