Aptiva - Why doesn't the works file I saved on diskette list in 'Your Software'?
Applicable to: World-Wide
Question:
Why doesn't the Works file I saved on diskette list in Your Software?
Answer:
The reason for this is that 'Your Software' is written to only display the names of executable programs, batch files, and BASIC program files. Executable program files are files that have a file name extension of .COM or .EXE.
A batch file has a file name extension of .BAT, and BASIC program files have the extension .BAS. 'Your Software' looks at the files in the current directory or folder that you have selected and displays the names of files that have one of these four extensions. The Works document that you saved will have an extension of .WPS, .WKS, .WDB, or .WCM, so they will not appear in 'Your Software'.
