Here is a follow up to my previous post. Just a few days after I learned about the website zamzar.com that allows you to convert files, a patron came in with a document saved in Microsoft Works. We called up the website, found the file on her CD, told it to convert to work, and enter her email address. Then we hit convert.
It took a few minutes for an email to show up in her account with the link to her converted file. (Apparently, the bigger the file, the longer it takes. This was a 2 page document without graphics and it probably took about 4 minutes.) She opened the email, clicked on the link that took us to her file. We clicked on the converted document and voila!
Grandmom was a hero because she could print out her grandson's homework which was due the next day!
I have a feeling I'm going to be using this site a lot.
