I get a message saying the file share.exe is needed to run the program but it is not available and I should fix my system! Where do I find this file and why would it not be already on my computer?

It's just possible that a fake share.exe made by opening Notepad and saving the empty file as share.exe, and putting it the root directory, ie c:\, could enable MSWorks to load, but I havent tried it to see. Ideally you should get a later version of MSWorks. Cheers	Guest (0)
