Hi,
I have acquired a new computer with Windows XP. I installed Word 97 which
came with my previous computer in the Works Suite. This appeared to work OK
initially but I am getting a message saying that there is an application
error and my work will be lost when part way through inputting and even if I
manage to get to the end of a document when I try to save it it gives me the
same application error message and my work is lost. I have tried running in
compatability mode but with no success. How can I get my copy of Word 97 to
run in Windows XP
