The files are supposed to open in microsoft word as they are all either word files or rich text files. Now when I try to open them all I see is a bunch of boxes like this [][][][][][][][] I installed the converter, but it still doesn't work. All the files are still the same size as they were before, so nothing is lost-I just can't see anythink....Please help, I need the documents for school!!!

There are so many options for this problem that it is difficult to answer.
1) Is your computer actually able to open the files on the CD? Do you have any Non-Word/RTF files that it are opening without any problem? Some CDs do not open on some computers. (I copied some .jpg's to a CD for someone and they tried to access them on 5 different computers before they actually were able to open the files.)
2) What version of WORD were the documents created in, and what version of WORD are you trying to open the documents with? It is much easier, for example, for WORD 2003 to open a WORD '97 Document than vice versa.
3) Sometimes this happens when you do not have the FONT installed that the document was created in.

Does your college have microsoft workplace put in on their desktops? If no longer it particularly is why you have become the extraordinary characters on the exhibit screen. with a view to apply those data on the desktops in college the college will could desire to setting up Microsoft workplace. or you will could desire to replica them to a wordpad rfile shop them to a diverse cd and open them in college that way.
