older computer

[Guest]

Older computer has microsoft millennium and this program contains word pad.
I am writting alot of papers for college and when these are saved on disk I
cannot open (of course college has microsoft word). I have tried to email it
as an attachment it still will not open. Question, can you convert
millennium to microsoft word?

Windows Millenium is not a word processor - it's an operating system.

This newsgroup is for questions about the database program Microsoft
Access. I'd suggest you scroll down the list of subjects in the lower
left of the webpage screen and ask the question in a Word newsgroup,
and/or perhaps a Windows ME newsgroup.

As explained elsewhere in this thread, this is not the best forum to ask
Word/WordPad questions. That said, though, both Word and WordPad can read
and write files using RTF (Rich Text Format). I believe WordPad uses this
format by default, but Word doesn't, you'll have to explicitly choose that
format when saving in Word to save documents that will be compatible with
WordPad.

Hi
this is only a sugetion it migt not work but have your tried copying and
pasting to notepad saving as a text file. Then trying opening in word.
Their should be a copy of Word pad on your college machine as its part of
the acsssories folder.
