[Gllug] Reading M$ files

wdb is not a Doc file as other have said, its a database file, you maybe
able
to open it in Excel, Defeats the object I know, there are some converters
around
do a search on Google, otherwise get the offending person to save it in csv
format

I havnt had a look but presume Staroffice will open a csv file ?

Hi,

We've been handed a Microsoft Works 2000 file, extension .wdb

Nothing (abiword, StarOffice, ...) seems to want to read it.

Anyone got any ideas?

cheers,Rich.
