Hmmm... I just tried installing it on my Office XP/Windows XP Home
system, and it installed fine. If you want to drop me an email to
garfield-n-odie at charter dot net, I'll email you the WORKS632.CNV
file. All you have to do to install it is put it in the C:\Program
Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\TextConv folder.

Converter 6.0 that you recomended. The message was just simply "installation
failed" I tried several times and also tried the Office Converter Pack. I
found this when searching for newer converters. Got that idea from you. In
total I tried 6 different ones. All downloaded ok and are still on my desktop
but all fail to install.

Thanks anyway,

Darren

Which converter? When you say "failed to install", what was the error
message, or how do you know it failed?

Hi Garfield, thanks for that, but, the convertor failed to install. It does
say it will work with Word XP so I don't know what went wrong there?

.wps usually indicates a Microsoft Works word processor file, not a Word
file. The Office XP/Word 2002 CD includes a converter for Works 7.0 files
that you can install. You can download the Works 6.0 converter from
http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=318244. Converters for older versions of
Works are available from the Downloads page on Word MVP Graham Mayor's
website http://www.gmayor.com.
