Word question...
I created some documents on my old computer in Windows 98.
I can't tell what version of word ( the old computer has crashed)..I would assume it was the standard version that came with windows 98...anyway..why can't I open the old documents on my new computer that has Windows XP? Are they not compatible? Help! |

Word question...
Win98 does not come with Word.
Perhaps you had some other application that you don't have on XP? If you still have your installation media, then check through and see. ....Alan -- Alan Edwards, MS MVP W95/98 Systems http://dts-l.org/index.html In microsoft.public.win98.apps, "Dan Myers" wrote: I created some documents on my old computer in Windows 98.
