I got a new computer that has XP Profession which
includes excel 2002. I had a works 2000 data base file
saved on a floppy disk, and I need to import the file to
this computer to use it. No matter what I try to open it
with, the computer says its not a valid file. If I try to
go on line to open it, it's not recognized there either.
PLEASE HELP!!!
 
Like a .csv file for example.

I don't know what Works can export, but hopefully it supports a few standard
formats. Otherwise, do a save as of the file to a Works 2.0 format, which
Excel can read.
 
Don't overwrite your original file if you do a saves in Works 2.0. Give it
a different file name.
 
If I can't open it, how can I export this file? I no
longer have the computer with the works 2000 database on
it to try to export it for the maching I have the excel
2002 on.
