Open MS Works 7 .dbf file in MS Access 2003 .mdb

I am running MS XP Professional Media Center. I am also running MS Works
7.0. I am also running MS Access 2003. I have some Works Database .dbf
files I need to open/convert to Access files. How do I do this?

Thanks.

Chris.

Based on previous posts, I don't think you can unless Works has a new export
format to save the file in Access format.

You can save the data and then import it into tables in Access, but I don't
think there is any way to copy your objects (forms, queries, reports, etc.)

..dbf isn't a Works file: it's a dBase file. Access can work with .dbf files.

Or do you mean .wdb files?
