My desk top dinosaur was a windows 98 machine. I had been using MS Works 4.5 for a lot of my word processing files. I've now upgraded to a Laptop with Vista. If I buy the latest version of MS Works can I bring my old Works files from my desktop machine to be opened and readable in my new laptop? TIA Torris
The only issue of which I am aware involves mail merge files created in Works 4.x and opened in some later versions. There is a patch available from MS downloads for that problem. -- Tom MSMVP 1998-2007 "Torris Bin Drinken" wrote in message news:478a7501.58170078@news.supernews.com... > My desk top dinosaur was a windows 98 machine.
