error) after showing the MACLINK PLUS translating tool. Then I went into my thumbdrive (still on my Mac computer) opened it and it said 'Appleworks Could Not Translate this'. I also tried saving it as ASCII TEXT but on my PC is said 'Excel could not recongnize this file format'...
Please Help,
Derek
EDIT:
I opened the wrong file, I forgot I called it <filename> ASCII TEXT so I opened the wrong one, it works.
