[comp.sys.apple2] appleworks compatability

hackman@pnet51.orb.mn.org (-8 Otto "Hack-Man" Heuer 8-) (10/22/90)

I have an ooooolllld version of AppleWorks (like version 1.0 or so) and was
wondering how compatible the newest AppleWorks (and/or AppleWorks GS) are with
it.  The main thing I'm wondering is if I can (easily) convert my old files to
work with the new package?

Also, is there any place to get Appleworks for less than Egghead's $189 or
AppleWorks GS for less than their $249?

Replies in email, please, since I've been too burdened to read this newsgroup
as of late.  (Sigh)

P.S.  Any news yet on when the patched version of ORCA/C is coming out?

It would have worked too, if it weren't for those meddling kids...and that dog

I'm not sure if Appleworks GS will import as far back as v.1
Programs Plus sells Appleworks GS for $205.

I've purchased from them in the past, and they've been very helpful and
reliable.
