Default File extensions

I am trying to clean out some old files from floppy's. I came across one
that had .dox. All files listed had .dox What kind of file is this? And can
I convert these files into a workable file or one that I can open? Plus how
do you look up file extensions?

Thank you for your help.

Google is your friend.

Whether or not you can do anything with those files depends on what it is.
You may not even need those files any longer.

Thank you very much for responding and so quickly. You are probably right.
I probably don't need the files anymore. Just curious what was on them.
Sometimes old files can be very helpful. Sometimes we lose a lot of
information and ideas from the past. But I will discard the old floppy as
don't have the time to try and salvage even if I could.

Again thank you!
