Converting Works to Word

[confusedinMainepjs]

I am looking for a way to convert work documents to word free of charge. Any suggestions? I have Works Version 8.5

There's a MS converter that allows Works files to be opened in Word. http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?displaylang=en&FamilyID=bf41401e-70fa-465d-ae2e-cf44dbf05297

I havn't used Works for years, but if I remember correctly there used to be an option to save file as with an option for an earlier version of Word.
So look for an option to save as a Word doc, failing that save as RTF file or plain txt.
Microsoft provides a converter for Office programs to open and save Works 6.0-9.0
Once you you can open them, you should be able to copy the contents to a new Word file and save it in Word.
Grumpy just saved me looking for the link.
