I'll give you a response that works with Office 97 and hope it still applies. <br>
<br>
There are a couple of options here. If you don't have too many files, rename them on the Mac to include the proper file extension (.doc, xls, etc). <br>
<br>
Otherwise, open the appropriate Office application and do file/open and look at all files. <br>
<br>
A shortcut to this: create shortcuts to Word, Excel, and Powerpoint on your Windows Desktop. Then, click and drag the Mac files over to the correct application. Works quick and well.<br>
<br>
PS. Why do you need MacDrive? Use PC disks in your Mac, unless you have a REALLY old Mac.
