Paula, there may be several ways to recover your documents, one of them you may find here at Microsoft >> http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=95e24c87-8732-48d5-8689-ab826e7b8fdf&DisplayLang=en I believe this 'Word Viewer' may help dfrog
Guest RalfG Posted July 18, 2007 Posted July 18, 2007 Re: help please i seem to have lost my microsoft word processor MS Works uses a proprietary document format, so unless you saved the documents as RTF or plain TXT you will have to reinstall the Works program. If you cannot reinstall your MS Works program for whatever reason, you MIGHT be able to get it working again by installing an update, if there is one for your version. These are not upgrades, so if your Works version number doesn't match, don't use the update. There are updates for Works versions 8, 7 and 4 here: http://www.microsoft.com/products/works/downloads.mspx Some Works documents can be coverted to MS Word format. The converter can be downloaded from Microsoft at the page above or here: http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=b9e11e83-f51b-4977-b572-8c042df802c1&displaylang=en After conversion they can be opened in MS Word, or in OpenOffice v2.2.1(a freeware wordprocessor you can download) http://download.openoffice.org/index.html or view them in the MS Word Viewer (read/print) http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?familyid=95E24C87-8732-48D5-8689-AB826E7B8FDF&displaylang=en "paula" <paula@discussions.microsoft.com> wrote in message news:E16262F6-F538-4DB8-8C45-400AFCEE435D@microsoft.com... >i dont know what happened but i tried to open one of my documents today.

I am getting the same error when I try to open a Works word processor document (works cannot access one or more files it needs to run the word processor. The files may have been renamed, deleted, or moved. Try reinstalling Works, and then starting the program again) the database and spreadsheet part of Works 7 work ok but not the word processor. I am using Works 7 and Windows XP pro and have uninstalled and reinstalled many times now I have uninstalled using the uninstall program on the CD and the clean up program on the CD I have uninstalled using windows add and remove programs I have tried reinstalling from the CD nothing seams to work any help would be appreciated
