I came here to answer computer questions. (This used to say "...and nothing more.")

What I meant was, I don't know how much help I would be with other things... NOT that I would be upset if you asked a non computer question!

I have Microsoft Works and I have an Online college class that requires you to Attach your file to the email. Problem is, I have Works and the professors all use Word. Is there a way I can convert it for them? Or saving it a certain way so the Prof will be able to open it with no problems?

Also, It's nothing fancy. The work I'll be sending him is 4 page essays and 4 page outlines. _(link)

Hi there,

How do you Convert works to Word? Well, the answer is a good one: OpenOffice.

It can read most variants of MS Works, and save in a whole bunch of flavors, including Word.

OpenOffice is a free replacement for Microsoft Office.

Once you use it to do this conversion, you can write all your future papers in it and save them as Word files. Some professors are now wanting PDF files, which this can also do. :-)

You can download the suite here:

Good luck!
