Re: Attempting to send ClarisWorks spreadsheet via email
I have ClarisWorks 4, which can import from CW 3, so I could do that conversion for you, if the file is not confidential. Or you can send me a similar dummy spreadsheet first for testing. But the main question is what program your friend has for opening the file??? On the other hand, your ClarisWorks should be able to save the spreadsheet in Excel format or some spreadsheet exchange format, like DIF, but you'll lose formatting and stuff. At least my CW4 can do that. What version do you have? On Oct 28, 2:28 pm, Jonas Lopez jonaslo...@yahoo.com wrote: Attempting to send ClarisWorks spreadsheet via email to friend.

Like Brian said. The second thing is are you sure the other party hasn't got Appleworks, which is what ClarisWorks became before it was terminated. I don't know if Appleworks can open old ClarisWorks files. AppleWorks can open some ClarisWorks files. Not CW 3 and older. They need to be converted by a later version of CW or a utility. This may also be true of CW 4 files. But CW 5 files should open just fine. FWIW my old Appleworks 6 still works fine under Snow Leopard; if you want a copy, email me. One can upgrade CW to latest AW with online downloads from Apple.

Re: Attempting to send ClarisWorks spreadsheet via email
I don't think ClarisWorks works in OS10 I had ClarisWorks in my Performa 475 and AppleWorks came out I'm pretty sure during the OS9 days??? And another thing I know if who you are sending it to someone doesn't have ClarisWorks they can't open it and I'm not sure if they have AppleWorks they can convert it and open it??? If they have a PC with Windows running Word I know for sure they can't open it... I wrote a book and used AppleWorks and I couldn't get it published because they couldn't read it at all and that's why I had to get Microsoft OfficeX... AppleWorks works in OS9 and up (now I know it works with Snow Leopard too! Thanks for that infoSanta)...
