ClarisWorks can directly import AWGS Word processor files, but I don't know
about the DB.

ClarisWorks does an ok job, but it doesn't import it exactly right.  For one
thing, it doesn't import the margins correctly.  And why can't it do page layout
from AWGS???  I mean the two programs are made by the same company!

Oh Well....
