Jon,
My college stuff on Works 3.1 Stopped being able to (easily) read this a few years ago, can't remember which version of Office this happened. I am given to believe that OpenOffice will read it straight off though....

Why should the world only need to be able to read data less than 10 years old? Our Public Liability period is 12 years to satart with.
Why shouldn't my children be able to read any thing written by the previous generation?
