Need MSWorks 5 Suite

Running an old IBM Aptiva ('99) and Windows 98 SE and have lost or loaned my
MSWorks 5 Suite (Works 5, Word 97, Picture It Express, etc.) and NEED a new
CD(2, maybe?) ASAP. (Computer crashed and I had to format the HD and start
ALL over.) A friend tried his MSWorks 6 here on this computer and his "Word"
and I don't seem to have enough horsepower to run it. Further, my MSWorks 5
and Word 97 files (many, Many ... some of which are irreplaceable and all
valuable to me) will not open on his system so please don't try to walk me
thru all the "fixes" to get them to open at his house. No need ... I want my
files here on my computer. Does ANYone have an old copy of this (MSWorks 5
Suite) that they could send (or sell) me??? I'm sure MR. Gates wouldn't mind
as he's probably up to MSWorks 10 by now. ;-) Hurry and HELP ??? Contact
direct at would be quicker and easier as I'm not a
"regular" in these pages. Thanx in advance.

Try eBay and also www.pricewatch.com to see if any dealers
still list some for sale.
