I'm looking for an utility to covert MSWorks .WPS files into something that I can import into OOo. My inlaws had to get a new system and it came with OOo installed, but OOo (2.0) doesn't open works stuff, and I'd like to not have to install MSWorks.
If they still have the old system with MSWorks on it, they can open the files in works and save them in RTF format. OOo will be able to handle the RTF versions of the files.
<chuckle> I actually know enough to give too much info in an explanation. The old system is dead, HP small foot print platform, dead power supply. If you've ever worked on one of these babies you know there's not much room in them and unfortunately I don't have a spare power supply or the room to set this up for a few hours to network it and do what is as simple as you suggest. (Too bad, I know this suggestion would work.)
