reading wdb file with excel
Hi
a repost from Ken Wright to convert MS Works files: ----- Generally you would normally open the file in WORKS and then save it down as a file that Excel can read. .xlr is a native Excel format, or .txt, ..csv, dbaseIV are all formats it can read. You can also find a converter here if you don't have WORKS. http://www.rl-software.com/indexjs.h...kscnvxls_e.htm Text from the website above:- Microsoft does not provide an import Excel filter for Works-WKS files later than version 2. (for Works-WPD and Word they do). There is no standard way to convert a lot of Works-WKS files into the Excel format. You need to save each file out of Works manually into XLS which is a pain in the neck. Here comes our MS Works Spreadsheets to Excel Converter. It does not need a Works Installation and you can use the batch converting wizard (see right side). a.. Completely integrated into Excel 97/2000/XP, no external program b..
