I've got several files in CWK format, but now no longer have Apple Works, or any way of opening them. I'm fine using TextEdit for most everything, but still need to have these somehow opened and then saved differently. Any help that doesn't cost an arm and a leg would be great. I don't want to buy a program, for only 10 files or less.

Normally I'd recommend you purchase iWork because the .cwk files can be converted for use with Word, Excel, and Powerpoint by Pages, Numbers, and Keynote. You could also try http://zamzar.com/ but I don't know the success rate with that conversion method.
 
It didn't, but I was able to open some in Text Edit and make it work. I've got a question now, and hope someone can help. I've got 2 cwk picture that I need to have opened and resaved as... As jpeg or png. I'm trying to find someone, willing to let me send them and open them to resave and send back.

Nothing about these pictures is wrong. They are maps I made for a book I'm writing, and would be more then a little helpful to have.
 
Have you got this sorted out yet? Same offer as SBM.

My problem is, it won't let me send PM's.

Edit--
Ok, it's let me. I'm sending it to the first person now, but will let you know if something falls through.

Thanks so much for offering.
