can you please answer the questions when asked if not we have no way to know how to answer you. We asked do you have any version of Microsoft office on that computer now??? you can also try downloading open office from here OpenOffice.org 3.1.1 click where it says download now a new page opens and a pop up box with the actual download will come up for you to save to your pc. but I think maybe the easiest way for you might be to just use an online conversion tool like this no need to install any programs just do it online DOCX Convert Office 2007 or this Zamzar.com - Free online file conversion zamzar is my fave. or you can now use Google docs to open them Google Docs

If you are trying to open the .wps files with Microsoft Word, then you probably need to install a file format converter in Word. I would've looked for you but alas, you didn't say which version of Works or Word you are working with. Another possibility would be to go back to the old computer, open a document with Works, and then use FILE : SAVE AS and save the document in RICH TEXT FORMAT (a .rtf file). Word ought to be able to open that, and then you can SAVE AS to a Word document.

you can do that very simply by going to zamzar which will allow you to choose from a list of file types to convert to. Here is a link that might be useful: zamzar

You're asking about converting a media file (sound or video) to a doc (text) file? Media files of one specification can be converted to another, text files of one type can be converted to another kind of text file. That's what conversion programs as discussed above can do. But something that changes data from one type of data to another type of data may not exist. You need some kind of voice recognition software, like Dragon, to transcribe the words.
