I really hate to suggest this but Win4Lin (http://www.win4lin.com/) is a pretty cool solution, and for $29.00 you can get he home version that will run '95 and '98, the install is pretty straightforward, put does require that you have a bootable Windows install disk. It installs a modified kernel, so that if you don't need windows on a regular basis, you can switch back to your regular stuff.

Hi
We have a load of .wri files created by ms windows 3.1

We've tried all the usual tricks, .doc, .rtf etc.
conversions but still can't get a reliable transfer to
OOo. Google brings up loads oif similar problems but
alas no clear cut solution.

Does anyone know of a way of converting these files
into anything that is current?

Cheers, Steve.


Try http://support.microsoft.com/kb/q111716/#toc and use
OOo to finalize any formatting.


Thanks. We are using the Linux version so unfortunately
the .exe file won't run for us.

Any other ideas?
Cheers, Steve.
