Opening Windows Works 2.0

[Toko]

I need some help opening documents made with win works 2.0.

The customer lost his install floppies and I can only find proggies that are compatible with works 4.0 and up.

Office 2007 has a recover ant text option but it recovers mostly jibberish from these docs.

File extension is .wps

Any help would be much appreciated.

Try this http://www.vetusware.com/download/Works 2.0/?id=4123

(Homepage for the above website http://www.vetusware.com/)

or if that doesn't work try OpenOffice

Thanx a lot, will test it when I'm at work tomorrow.

Got it working, the works on that website didnt work but I managed to get the original proggie working again.

Thanx a lot for the link, there are some usefull proggies there.

Had the almost the very same issue yesterday, client has stuff that was created in Works and was unable to open them in Office 2003 but 2007 did the trick to recover at least the text.
