 Posted: Mon Apr 30, 2012 5:57 pm Post subject: .wdb in Open Office |
 |
|
I have a MS Works database that I have been using for years and containing thousands of entries. I recently got a new computer and found that W7 does not include MS Works. Is there any way to use Open Office with my Works Database? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Although I am not completely illiterate, I am self taught and may need a little hand holding to accomplish this, if it is, indeed, possible.
Thanks in advance for any help. |

| .wdb is not supported in OOo. Can you export the file as .dbf which is. |

I don't know. I will try. If I can do that, will it become usable in OOo? I really hate to buy the MS Works from MS since they have not supported it for a couple of years. If all else fails, I will do that because I have an unbelievable amount of time and effort in creating that DB.
Thank you for looking at this. |
