MacLink plus will translate Microsoft Works for you. There are also
translators that will do Word that comes with the latest version AppleWork,
you have to install them but check and see if they do Microsoft Works 3.0.
Please don't install Microsoft Works on the new iMacs it will cause crashes.
Maclink Plus came with older Mac and you probable have a copy around.
