I have just ordered a new system with MSWindows-XP
professional and MSOffice-Professional.

I have an important file(a simple name/address file
consisting of approx. 200 records) that I would like to
import into the new system.

How can I do this--can the data be imported into Access
(i.e., is there any compatibility between MS-Access and
the MSWorks database?)? If not, is there any other option?

Thank you.

I don't think that Access can read Works files but I believe that Works can
export to a dbf file or a csv file. Access can import either of those.
