Thanks Skip.  Perhaps I will revert to the original VisiCalc versions, since
that will run on a modern PC, and the floppies are 5.25" ... but they have a
weird format.

Theer is a very interesting description of the development of VisiCalc at
www.bricklin.com which gives a clear view of how things were before the PC.
I had forgotten how significant calculators once were!

Excel 5.0 can read Multiplan files.  Or if you have a computer still
installed with Multiplan, save it as SLK, which can be read with later
versions of Excel.  Reading the 8" floppies might prove the biggest problem
though.
