How to convert old windows 98 files to pages

This might be a very far out question that has no answer. I just found some ancient (windows 98) files on a memory stick that I would love to convert to pages. Is there a way to do that? Or a website where I can convert them (I'm probably thinking along the lines of youtube converters) or is it just tough luck - ancient hyroglyphs lost in the sands of time....
Any help how to do it (step to step instructions required, I'm afraid) or tips of where and how to do it are much appreciated!

I just opened a 1997 Word .doc file in LibreOffice 3.6.2 with all formatting preserved. Pages gave an import error as unsupported version of Word. Also, OpenOffice may work just as well, due to its inclusion of original StarOffice code. Both applications are free.
Connected a 1999 external USB floppy disk reader to Mountain Lion, and without drivers, it just worked.

  • How Do I create Windows Form file in VS and add the form to my VS project?

    C#, How Do I create Windows Form file in VS and add the form file to my VS project by using C# code?
    I like to create a Windows Form file into my VS Win Form project by using C#. I have the path and the file name.
    I need a Win Form with FileName.cs, FileName.Designer.cs, FileName.resx, and FileName (as you see it VS by adding a Win Form manually by using VS)
    Rune Brattas

    You cannot create a Form from code at run time. 
    For one thing, the user running your application will, almost certainly, not have  a copy of Visual Studio to hand with which to build anything.  (Not that you actually need 'Studio at all; Notepad and csc.exe are all you actually
    need), but that's another story).
    You can do this with an awful lot of pain, using the innards of the compiler from iside your own program, compiling the new Form's source code on the fly and then executing the resulting assembly within your application.  IMHO, that's a simply terrifying
    prospect especially as the code you will be compiling will be on someone else's machine and over which you will have absolutely no control.  If you're lucky, they'll spell something wrong and it won't compile.
    The "usual" way to do this sort of thing is to create additional, "plug-in" forms as library assemblies and have your program load and execute these at run-time.

    There is no automatic way to do this in JDeveloper. I know there are some Oracle Partners offering forms to java conversion, I don't know how much of their tools are automated and done with JDeveloper. With JDeveloper+ADF you basically rewriting the Forms application from scratch (and using ADF is helpful during this process).

  • How to convert IDOC to flat file in XI

    Hello SDNers
    I have a scenario IDOC --> XI  --> Flat file. My question is how to conver IDOC to flat file. At least there are two ways to do that:
    1) Define a flat structure in PI that reflects the IDOC structure, then using content conversion to convert the flat structure to flat file in hte receiver communication channel.
    2) There is a [document |https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/46759682-0401-0010-1791-bd1972bc0b8a] talking about using a generic ABAP mapping to map any IDOC to flat file.
    For the option 1, I don't want that way, because I would need to define a flat structure in PI for each IDOC which is too much effort. (I would have dozens of IDOC scenarios)
    The second one is very attractive. However the document is not complete to follow. Basically it does not explain how the inbound flat structure looks like. I guess the generic ABAP mapping is used to map any IDOC_XML structure to a flat structure, then in the file receiver communication channel to convert the flat structure to flat file format. But the document does not mention how the flat structure looks like. Has somebody tried this scenario? If yes, can you please let me know the steps to do in ESR (IR) and ID? Basically what structure the IDOC_XML should be mapped to using the generic ABAP mapping class?
    Or somebody has other ideas on how to convert IDOC to flat file?
    Thank you so much
    Eric

    > 1) You are saying that for Java mapping and abap mapping, the target data type (messag type) is just a dummy one, the real (XML) message the receiver will recieve is the one (stream) produced by the java or abap mapping. Is that correct?
    Definitely yes!
    >
    > 2) For the abap mapping option, I would define a dummy target data type. Do I need to do any content conversion in the receiver adapter (communication channel)?
    None wat so ever.The output of your Java Mapping will be the Native Idoc Format.
    >
    > 3) I tried with a dummy target data type as mentioned in my second post, can you see any clue in the error message what is wrong?
    Dats one thing I cant help much. Just make sure that the ABAP report is valid and take the help of a ABAP'er to debug what is going wrong. Not much of a ABAP guy, can read ABAP code, but cant write one myself
    Try to test the program standalone to see how it works. Maybe take some Idoc XML file as input and then dump the output to a .txt file and so on.
    Regards
    Bhavesh
    PS : All this is from what I have read of this guide. I have not convert Idoc XML to Native Idoc but have used this guide to convert Native Idoc to Idoc XML .

  • How To Convert IDOC to FLAT File ?

    Dear Expert,
            My requirement is to convert the IDOC to FLAT File using XI. How can i do this. I have gone thru the Guide How to convert IDOC to Flat file using ABAP mapping but it does not talk about what are all the stpes i need to do in IR & ID.
    I am ready to use ABAP mapping since i am an ABAPER.
             Is it recommended to use ABAP mapping since we expect daily 500 IDOCs to be converted to a flat file & transfer this flat file to some FTP location.
             Can anybody tell me the stpes how to do this in XI. The steps i am expecting like how to define the Data Type / Message type / Mapping etc & how to configure the channel ?
             The Flat file i want to convert should look like the way IDOC file gets created in FILE FTP port in SAP.
    Regards,
    Umesh

    I think there is some confusion... Let me explian my problem once again.
    I want to convert the Shipment IDOC as it is the moment the shipment documents gets created in R/3. I dont want to collect many IDOCs & make as single file. For each IDOC it should create a Flat File.
    Secondly if i have to MAP the whole IDOC the graphical mapping is too difficult.
    So instead of that can i use ABAP/XSLT/JAVA whichever is easy. ?
    Since i am ABAPER i can use ABAP mapping.
    The Output file should look like as below.

  • How to convert bytes[] into multipage File object

    Hi,
    How to convert bytes[] into multipage File object??
    I used the java.io.SequenceInputStream to concatenate two input streams (basically .pdf files) into a single input stream. I need to create a single multipage pdf file using this input stream.
    Thanks for you help in advance..

    Only text format allows you to concatenate two files together to get a longer files.
    Most formats have a header and a footer and so you cannot simply add one to the other.
    You need to use a PDF API which will allow you to build the new document (if one exists)

  • How to convert from windows media into iTunes without creating two albums with one featured song by itself?

    I found out how to convert my windows media player music into my iTunes since I just joined the apple world. I was able to do one CD but I tried to convert Alicia Keys Element of Freedom and all of the songs converted except "Put It In a Love Song" featuring Beyonce. If it's going to do that, how do I keep it from doing all of my albums that have featured artists so it'll be in one album. I don't want the album and then the sole song sitting there. I've tried to find out if anyone's addressed that, but I'm not sure if people are addressing it because it's coming from Windows Media and not the store yet.

    Generally all you need to do is fill in an appropriate Album Artist. For more details see my article on Grouping Tracks Into Albums, in particular the topic One album, too many covers.

  • Does anyone know how to convert a novel manuscript, written in Pages, to an Amazon e-book and CreateSpace document?

    Does anyone know how to convert a novel manuscript, written in Pages, to an Amazon e-book and CreateSpace document?  Do I need to purchase Word for my iBook?

    Susan,
    You need to create a pdf file of the document to print using CreateSpace. Check their size requirements and set up your document to fit those, make sure your cover has the correct bleed if the cover image goes "off the edge", and work your way through the guided system on CreateSpace. If you know someone who has done a book there, they might be able to help you, too. I will be doing a book from an author who used Pages soon, too, and though I use InDesign, he does not. I don't anticipate any problems with it, as a pdf is a file structure with which CreateSpace is familiar.
    You can also use their more tutorial-like set-up, too, perhaps, at least the first time through the process. I typically help first-time users through the process when I've helped create their books, too. It's mostly straight-forward, minus the upload problem I'm currently dealing with with my computer, of course!

  • My mac is converting Word and Excel files into Pages and Numbers files when I click to open them (or download and open them) from an email. I do I get this to stop? It's really aggravating.

    My mac is converting Word and Excel files into Pages and Numbers files when I click to open them from an email. Downloading them and opening them doesn't help. How do I make this stop? I don't use iLife and don't want to; my clients are using Office and it's easier for me, except when I have to copy and paste everything they send me from an iLife file back to Word and Excel.

    Lion will only let you add documents to iCloud through iCloud.com, iCloud.com requires the iOS apps before you can use it.
    Mountain Lion will let you add documents to iCloud from the iWork apps themselves, you don't then need the iOS apps before they can be opened on another Mac.

  • How to convert VHDX to VHD file format on windows 8 / Windows server 2012?

    Here is an article to describe how to convert virtual hard disk VHDX file format to VHD 
    http://anuraggawande.blogspot.in/2012/10/vhdx-to-vhd-conversion.html

    Hi,
    Thanks for sharing the web link!
    You help other community members who facing similar problems.
    Thanks for your contribution to Windows Server Forum!
    To convert VHD format, you can also use Convert-VHD comlet. The Convert-VHD cmdlet converts a virtual hard disk file by copying the data from a source virtual hard disk file to a new virtual hard disk file of a specified format and version type. The format
    is determined by the file extension of the specified files, either .vhdx or .vhd. Conversion is an offline operation; the virtual hard disk must not be attached when the operation is started.
