I had the same problem.
Excel can import Works 2.0 but no higher.
You need Works 3.0 or higher to open the file and save as CSV if you want
to
import into Access or Excel. It does wierd stuff to the formatting though
and you lose all the formulae in the process eg
A1 = 4
A2 = 3
A3 = A1*A2
CSV will output 4,3,12 so although you get the info into your new
spreadsheet, unless you know what the calculations were you are in deep
doo-doo :-(
