Barb was finally giving up the
Barrhaven Tennis Club treasurer job after 15 years. So she had to give the
treasurer's computer to the new treasurer.
We had been using the computer for quite a few
years as a home computer. So Barb asked me to clean it up. To
remove the personal files and the special programs that I had
installed.
As I was uninstalling the programs, I
noticed a program called Microsoft Works. I immediately remembered
that Barb had received a file from a lady in Florida with the email
addresses and phone numbers of all of the quilters at Crystal Lake
where we live in Florida.
She could not open the file because it
was written in Microsoft Works. Microsoft Works was incompatible
with everything we had. I guess it was a special program that comes
with the Microsoft Vista operating system.
I was able to finally open the file. I
was able to re-save it as a Microsoft Word file. Barb was very happy
to finally have the email addresses and phone numbers of the Crystal
Quilters.
