What format are the spreadsheets in? If they are in AppleWorks or ClarisWorks, and if you have your old install disks you might be able to get to them still. There is an application call SheepShaver [1] which will let you run an (emulated) version of classic Mac OS's. I use it to run Hypercard from time to time because of some old old stacks I once wrote and sometimes like to peek at. I just checked and it appears to still work under El Capitan, so I would assume it will work under Yosemite. You will need a Mac OS ROM file and a disk image of your MacOS installer disk. I believe that when I set it up, I used this tutorial: http://lowendmac.com/2008/sheepshaver-brings-the-classic-mac-os-to-intel-macs-and-leopard/ Cheers, Bill [1] http://www.emaculation.com/doku.php/sheepshaver
