I posted this on the General Forum,but was hoping someone might catch this here....
I have Windows 95' with Microsoft Plus!,(I believe office 97),and Microsoft WORD version 7.0. My problem is that I have old Word 6.0 Documents on a Floppy, and cannot open this in Word 7.0, I re-installed office/Word,and made sure the converter was checked.tried to open as .DOC,ALL FILES,TEXT FILES,ETC.,Also, my friend has Microsoft works4.0,( a watered down version of Word,and tells me it can not find the WINWORD.exe File to open this.Maybe it was not included in works.) Any suggestions? Thank you.

Microsoft Word is not a part of MS WORKS, but MS OFFICE...

If it's not important to preserve the formatting, can you open them in wordpad?
