Hi Daniel
Thank you for that suggestion. I wasn't sure how robust AW5 Windows
was in handling such a procedure. It is worth a try.

Hi Merv
Another thing to try,..albeit a bit of a pain perhaps.
If your friend works with it in version 5, you can still open it into
Version 6 to work on. It will create a "copy" and call tit v6.0 at the end
of the document. You can then work with it in OSX.
Then when you are finished working on it, you can just "Save As" and choose
Format Appleworks 5. This will then save it back as an Appleworks 5 document
which you friend will be able to work on.
May not be the easiest of solutions,...but just something else to consider
and try.
Hope that helps.
Kind Regards
Daniel

There is an AppleWorks update for Windows to 6.2.2
(VersionTracker). However, I can not find Appleworks 6.0 for
Windows to purchase and install and then update.
Torrent might have such but is this a legal site?
Because we are using AW5 I must use Classic. With 6.2.2 I would be
able to use OS10 and that would make life easier.
Advice appreciated

Check out product description and it is for Mac only. I need the
Windows version to install on my friend's PC.
Will my address help with the earlier offer - a Windows version?
If so: 5 Hayward Street, Myaree WA 6154
Thank you
Merv
