Hi, after upgrading my Bondi Blue to 0S X.2, I can't open my older saved appleworks documents, V.5, that are saved on back-up disks. However, when I changed the startup disk to OS 9.2, (took forever to rebuild the desktop!) I could open them, so I know the documents are not corrupted or anything. I really want to boot in X, not classic. I think Appleworks 6.0 works in both 9 & 10 and I thought it would open older docs regardless, but I'm not having any success. It seem to only boot in OS X (the blue apple is showing) even though classic is open. I tried reinstalling it, thinking something loaded wrong, but it keeps doing the same thing. Any ideas? Thanks!

There are two different versions of AppleWorks 6, one for OS 9 (latest version is 6.2.5, I believe) and one for OS X (latest version 6.2.7?). You need to have the OS X version in your OS X applications folder if you want to avoid Classic mode. However, the OS 9 version should work in Classic.
Either version will tell you that it is creating a new file when it opens an AppleWorks 5 document.
