Re: Converting Appleworks to Excel

["Johnny B." <striderlirr@hotmail.com>]

Thanks for thr quick reply. My next question is how do I get the files from
my //gs to my PC. Is there a emulator that will allow my PC to read a Prodos
3.5 disk? If not how can I inport the files. My apple does not have internet
access so I can not e-mail them to myself.
