[CGUYS] Appleworks question

2008-11-06 Thread David Turk
My partner was working on a Word Processing document in Appleworks 6, saved it, 
 when he reopened it, it opened up as a Spreadsheet.  There has to be way to 
reconvert this, right?  I've copied  pasted the info to a TextEdit file, then 
copied  pasted back into an Appleworks Word processing document, but we've 
lost all the formatting.  It's a resume, so there are a lot of formatting 
changes to make.  Any thoughts?  tia.

As long as he didn't save it after opening it up as a spreadsheet, he 
can try a few things. When he created the document is he sure that he 
saved it as an AppleWorks file? There's a pull-down menu in the Save 
dialog box that gives a dozen or so file choices.


-Did he open it from the Finder by double-clicking it? Open AppleWorks 
first. Then open the document inside the program.


-Open a new word processing document. Insert the problem file -- 
File--Insert.


-Learn how to use Styles. Define how the formatted text should appear, 
so that it will always look the same as when it was created.
