LOL!

Or are you serious :o)

Along these lines, I just was working on getting my accountant off of using
Works 3 for her letters. She wanted me to install Works for Windows 3 on her
new PC because she couldn't make it work. She has Word 2000 but didn't think
she could use the files in that program. She did have to save them as RTF
but they worked just fine.

I also got her off of Lotus Symphony for DOS 1.2 last year (she also has
Excel 2000). The spreadsheets came through without a glitch!
