Check out the Appleworks page: http://www.apple.com/appleworks/ Look at the update section on the right. You'll find: AppleWorks 6.2.1 for Windows This free update to AppleWorks for Windows provides improvements to the spreadsheet. I believe it's only offered to schools, however. Apple heard complaints, as I understand it, that PC users at schools couldn't open Appleworks docs, so there you go. I'm sure there's a better, cheaper solution, but just thought I'd point out that there is an AW for Windows. Ruffin Bailey
