recovering old 1-2-3 worksheets

[magoo2]

I found a bunch of old 1-2-3 worksheets (wk1, wk2 and wk3). I'd like to be able to see what they contain but my Excel 2007 doesn't read them. Do I need to find an old copy of Lotus or what other option do I have?

Thanks in advance.

Try Open Office. It's free.

Try doing a custom install and selecting all of the file translators

I think Excel 2007/2010 doesn't have any support for 123 files.

As far as I know, Gnumeric has the best support for 123 files, and is the same price as Open Office.

Or install 123 and get macro support as well.

Many thanks to all for your suggestions. I found a copy of 1-2-3, so I'm going to install it.
