I opened Microsoft Works.
I opened MS Word Processor.
I opened "New Document".
I opened WT Library.
Bible.
Chose Bible verse.
Highlighted
Clicked Send To
It asked if I wanted to send it to MS Works and I let it.
I checked on my blank page and it remained blank.
I also tried this without highlighting the text. It will only send to "Write"
(Word Pad.)
Someone locally suggested I make sure the cursor was on the page rather than in
the header. That made no difference.
It recognizes that I have the Works program open, it just won't get it there!!
I did notice that Word Processor choice box after clicking on Library and
Properties. I can MAKE the choice, I just can't get it to remember it and DO
it! I will try using the tips John sent ... that is, after I get back home from
work today ...
So, to all, many thanks for your suggestions. Surely one of them will work. I
was getting anxious to print out the TMS material for January and when I hit
this snag I began getting nervous!!

Not having Works, I can't test this, but try this if you will please.
Open Microsoft Works FIRST, THEN open the WTLIB and highlight some material
to send.
Click on send. See if it gives you the option to send it to Works since you
have
that open. It may be just that simple.
Also, there is a free program that some I know are using that is similar to
Word.
It's called Star Office.

That page has a review of it.
Here is a site to download Star Office if it would benefit you.

Subject: [pchelpers] Re: problem
I've been through the bad virus deal over the weekend ... it wouldn't even
allow me
to access the Norton Antivirus web pages to find out how to repair. So...I
rebooted.
More strange things showed up but so far no viruses. Whew!
One strange thing is that I had Microsoft Word previously on this computer,
but after
rebooting with the store-provided discs, I only have Microsoft Works. I can
live with
that if I have to. But what I can't live with is NOT having the Watchtower
Library
send text to Works. It is only sending it to a Word Pad called "Write" which
has very
little editing properties. Can someone help me force the WT Library to send
text to
Works and make it stay?
Thanks in advance.
Feel stranded in Nebraska. :-)
