Works 4.5 upgrade with new laptop?   
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

Re: Works 4.5 upgrade with new laptop?   
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.
