    lugan2 It seems there is a Java applet converter that handles this conversion

    https://www.mydigitallife.net/convert-microsoft-works-database-wdb-to-csv-or-excel-without-works-installed/

    Java can be tricky these days so read the comments after the post. (for me it worked after i put : http://disq.us/url?url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.codealchemists.com%3A3JTqSegTxRWDCR5sTWBoEYHD2nM&cuid=2659753 in the Exception Site list (Control Panel --> Java -->Security)

    If this doesn't work...i think you can use Libre Office/calc to open it.
