Yes - but be aware that there are differences between versions of Microsoft Office. CCS workstations use Microsoft Office 97 . When they introduced this version Microsoft changed the way in which data is stored internally in the files, known as the file format . Each application uses its own format . For example, Word for Windows 6.0 uses a different format to Excel 5.0 .
Most applications can read a limited set of formats beside their own.
These are known as import formats . These are known as export formats . Be warned that converters do not convert every feature in a Word for Windows 97 document. You can obtain a copy on floppy disk from CCS Help Desk. If you forget to save your Word for Windows 97 document in Word for Windows 6.0 without the converter will not read Word for Windows 97 files.
