= SUMMARY =

It has been reported that Sideways (used to print in landscape mode with dot-matrix printers) works correctly with Microsoft Works version 1.0, 1.05, 2.0, and 3.0 if Sideways is set up to print Lotus files.

To configure Sideways and print a file from Works, perform the following steps:

  With the Sideways disk in drive A, type the following at the MS-DOS command prompt and press ENTER: A:GETSWADN Then, type the following and press ENTER: A:GETMGR   From within Works, print the Spreadsheet, Database, or Word Processor file to a file in the Sideways subdirectory.   Quit Works.   Run Sideways.   Print the print file from Sideways. 

Microsoft has not tested Works with Sideways, and therefore cannot guarantee proper results.
