Dave, I have emulated a DOS environment on my computer that I ran Papyrus on with success 10 years ago. I could try to do the same now, but I don't have the program file any longer. If you could get me the program file I could try to help.

Best,

Hello, former (presumably) users of Papyrus.

I’ve received a call for help from one of your colleagues. He has a Papyrus database that he can no longer access, as his old computer has finally died. (And, as you know, a modern Windows 7 or later machine won’t run Papyrus.)

At this point he’d be extremely grateful if he could send someone his *.BIB files, who could then run Papyrus to create for him a Word document of all his references.

Now, you might think that I could accomplish such an easy task here at the former Papyrus headquarters! Unfortunately, the former Papyrus headquarters consists mainly of a very old PC that has not been connected to the Internet for many years.

While I might eventually be able to get all the pieces hooked up again, I’m wondering whether one of you might be better equipped to more easily help your colleague?
