Follow the instructions to install MacOpener, then:
This quote from the company web site:
Using Macintosh Media
Simply insert any Macintosh 1.44 MB floppy disk, SyQuest cartridge, Mac OS Extended format (HFS+) disk, etc. and use it. You can even format Macintosh disks on your Windows PC. Conversions Plus is perfect for sharing ''cross-platform files'' such as graphics, publishing, audio, web and more.
To access a Mac disk, simply double-click on the drive icon that has the disk in it - just like you would for a PC disk. Yes, it's that easy...
End of quote.
It does not get much more step by step than that. Remember that this program ONLY allows you to read the disk. It does NOT create some magic by which you can use the data contained on the disk. For example. You have an XL spread sheet on the Mac disk. You move it to your PC via the Macopener program. You do NOT have XL on your PC. Even though you can read the disk, you still CANNOT open the XL file.
On another note. Is the disk you are trying to use a HD, High Density, disk? If it is, it will have two square holes in it, one on each corner. If you disk only has one square hole, you will not be able to read it, even with Macopener. The program only supports HD disks. You might even have difficulty with reading it on a Mac. This must be some really important data that you have been hiding away. Microsoft Works (now there's an oxymoron) has not been produced for the Mac for years.
