95 Bookshelf with Win XP

[Guest]

I have XP professional and want to use my old 95
bookshelf (I love the dictionary) and can't seem to get
it to launch. Is there a way to do this? When I try to
start if from the disk (run>d:/ BKSHLF95) I get an
error "can't open this file BSHELF95.M14 Windows needs to
know what program created it." It then atempts to go
online to find the program with no luck. Any suggestions?
Thanks CT
