I am at a new company that uses LOTUS instead of MICROSOFT (ugh) and my old forms do not work in LOTUS. I can't create pop ups/drop down boxes. Does anyone have a corrective action form in WordPro or 1-2-3?

Marilyn,
Do you still have access to Excel? Have you tried to "save as" as a .wks file? I don't know much about Lotus, but maybe this will work.

Lotus and Excel use different macro languages, so while there might be some ability to convert between the two formats, macros will never work.

Corrective Action Database

I was able to create a form in Lotus WORDPro but now I need a database. Does anyone have a corrective action database in Lotus? I really wish I could use Access but it isn't possible.

I believe Excel 2003 will allow you to save and Excel file to a Lotus WK.4. That feature went away with Excel 2007. I am using Excel 2010 and that feature is not in it. You may be able to bridge over using Open Office Spreadsheet. I don't have it on this computer. If you have Open Office, open your Excel SS in it and try to save as a Lotus file. Maybe some one else knows for certain.

Re: Corrective Action Database

I have Lotus Approach on an older PC. It is not a true database, but rather a front end data manager for 1-2-3. If you are planning on housing a large amount of data, I would strongly, recommend staying with Access. Approach is not very stable when records exceed 1000 or so. Lotus and Approach have a finite data dimensional array. That is the more columns you have, the fewer rows (records) it will support. Also, the more tables you link to build relational references, the more frequently Approach will crash. I am not trashing Approach, but rather speaking from experience. It is quick and easy to learn, just not very robust.
