Office XP/Microsoft Works

[Tammy]

My computer died a few weeks back, but we were able to
save what we needed from it before the final meltdown.
We built a new computer and put XP on it. We also
purchased Office XP pro. I cannot open any of my files
that I created on the works database. My text files open
fine. But I have several files I created in the
spreadsheet in Works that I need. How do I do this?

Thanks

In Office XP, did you install the optional translators? They are under the
Office Tools Tree in the Office setup.
