| How to convert MS-Works-MAC files to Windows-Version Posted: 18 Sep 2004 06:19 AM PDT Do the files that you got have any extension? On the Mac, file extensions are optional as the Mac doesn't use them to determine file type. So your friend could have saved them without any extension or with some other extension and they still would have worked on the Mac. Having the expected file extension on Windows makes it easier to work with a file. I'm not sure Works 7 still has the conversion filters to handle the Mac Works 3 files. Apparently Works 4 does. Do you might need to get a copy of Works 4 and install that. I understand it can coexist with Works 7. You can then open the Mac files in Works 4, and then save them in a Windows version that Works 7 can use. -- Mike - http://pages.prodigy.net/michael_santovec/techhelp.htm "Axel Pötzinger" <net> wrote in message news:phx.gbl... |
