  can someone help me open an ms works file please?

  Posted by Paul Humble on 3 February 2009 at 13:43

  Ive been given a file in .wps format but I dont have MS Works and cant open it. The customer is computer illiterate and cant save it as another format. Any chance someone can have a look and see if it can be converted to an Excel or similar file?

  Ive not even seen the file yet so I really dont know what to expect.

  Check your drop downs in Word to open files Paul. Towards or at the bottom there should be an option "Works 6 &7"

  Cheers guys, I managed to open the file and to be honest I wish I never!!!

  It needs totally redoing, but ive added it to my bill and the customer has no complaints.
