    I have a file in Macwrite that I'd really like to save, but no longer have the ability to open the file.

    I had it in Word until a hard drive crash about a year ago.

    If you can help,PM me.

    Thanks

    The only workaround I can think of is if you can find an early 1990s computer that runs Corel WordPerfect. I think WordPerfect would convert MacWrite files into Word files back in the day.

    A lot of law firms still use Word Perfect.
    Find someone that works at a firm that uses Word Perfect that can hook you up.
