Do you keep your files on a zip or a floppy so
that at least another computer with Shoebox
on it can read them or print them out? If you
don't, I would suggest in future that you never
commit anything important to a hard-drive, or
make extensive backups on disk and in hardcopy.
As for new programs, Word might be best.
Microsoft Excel has a decent database for
lexicons. Me, I do everything on Notabene.

it asks me to select an appropriate database format, instead of the normal
4.0. It's doing this with all my .prj files. What's happening, and what can
I do?
