How do I open a Works .wdb file in Access 2000?

I am trying to open a Works .wdb file in Access 2000 - but Access doesn't
recognize it. I could not find an update to add that file extension. Any
ideas?

Access can't recognize Works.

You can try export the Works data into a format Access can recognize (.csv
or .dbf are the most usual choices), and then import that file into Access.

As well, I understand that Excel can sometimes read Works files. Once you
get the data into Excel, Access should have no problem importing it.
