I have used SideKick 95 for the past 15 years on a variety of computes and operating systems. About a week or 10 days ago, SideKick quit working on every one of my computers. I have tried everything to get it to work but have had no luck. Reluctanly, and with sadness, I have decided to put Sidekick 95 to rest.

If there some way of converting a SideKick card file to a format that is readable in Excel or some other program? If someone knows the answer, please post the procedure. The SideKick card file I am using actually dates back to 1980 and has all contact info that I have accumulated over almost 30 years. Although I have plenty of backups of the file, I cannot seem to access the card file no matter what I do. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Hope you stayed with Sidekick. I have strayed into Foxpro and Excel using Sidekick files and I still do this for presentation and Office uses but I have Sidekick98 on XP Vista and 7 and would say it will survive all
