Hello,
I am only new to Appleworks 6. When I bought my copy of the programme I spent a couple of weeks reading and trying things before beginning to use the programme in earnest.
I bought the programme to use in my Genealogical efforts in making Databases for the various names I have in my files.
Some of the names in those files go back to the 16th & 17th Centuries so the years to be put into the D/B often need the 4 digits of a year , EG: 1746. For some obscure reason my copy of Appleworks keeps telling me that those dates are invalid. I have tried everything but can get the 4 numbers into an entry for only a short time. It allows me to type them in and they appear on the D/B briefly, but then disappear so the programme is useless to me like that. Can anybody offer any advice on how to go about overcoming this problem , I would be much obliged if you could help,
John
