| 1154223 | 2010-11-18 10:36:00 | Thats good. Copy the file from the file backup to where you can find it then reinstall Works 8. Let's know how you get on. You could rename that .ndb file to .wcd after you reinstall if you like and overwrite with the backup if it still will not open. |

| 1154224 | 2010-11-18 10:38:00 | ooooops how do I do that? Not sure if you read my previous message at the bottom of page 1 | dianne pierce (13385) | ||
| 1154225 | 2010-11-18 10:47:00 | OK. Let us start again. You do have a backup of the .wcd file dated 16/11/2010 I assume in another place. If so then reinstall Works 8, Then restore the file from your backup. |

| 1154226 | 2010-11-18 10:56:00 | sorry snorkbox I am using FBackup 4.4. Having trouble locating the file in the 'select backup catalog or initialisation files | dianne pierce (13385) | ||
| 1154227 | 2010-11-18 11:06:00 | OK. Just reinstall Works 8 at this time. After you reinstall then go find the .ndb file and rename it to mswkscal.wcd. The .ndb file will not be overwritten by a reinstallation of Works. I will go install FBackup so I can teach you how to restore the backup. If you can't restore the backup you may be screwed. |

| 1154228 | 2010-11-18 11:21:00 | Really appreciate your help, thank you so much. Did a system restore back to 6/11/2010. Did a search and found the file mswkscal.wcd. Copied and saved to desktop. Clicked on it and is says "windows cannot open this file as it needs to know what programme created it. Clicked on selct programme from the drop down list. Chose Adobe Reader 9.4 whcih was highlighted. Adobe couldn't open it as it is not a supported file. Gives other options to open but don't know what to choose from the list | dianne pierce (13385) | ||
| 1154229 | 2010-11-18 11:33:00 | Open the file from Works 8. Did you reinstall works 8 yet? | Snorkbox (15764) | ||
| 1154230 | 2010-11-18 11:35:00 | do I reinstall works from the web as a free download, don't have installation disc | dianne pierce (13385) | ||
| 1154231 | 2010-11-18 11:42:00 | I don't think you can download it from the Web. :-( So try right click the file on the desktop and choose open with and choose works 8 then. |
