Tech-Archive recommends: Speed Up your PC by fixing your registry

I appologize for the lack of detail, I didn't think anybody would take me
seriously. I have, as mentioned my correspondence from my old PC w/Lotus on
a couple of floppies. In my new Dell, with WinXP and Microsoft Word, I put
the floppy in its drive and displayed it. I then selected DISPLY ALL in Edit
and then MOVE TO in the left panel. I placed the files in My Documents and
was most proud of my accomplishment until I found out that what looked like
files in my Documents didn't open (display) when clicked. They appear to be
empty.

Now, I have since learned that the Lotus program in my old PC, which I have
since given away, gave these files the suffix .LWP, which apparently is
not acceptable to Microsoft Word and that this program refuses to have
anything to do with them.

My question therefore was if there is a way to manipulate these files so
that they may be accpetable to WinXP or Microsoft Word and thus can be
opened and displayed on my new Dell PC.

With many thanks for your patience and efforts.

Hans
