I have several poems that my late wife wrote in Lotus with the LWP extention. I would very much like to retrieve them and be able to view them. Is there something out there that I can use? I have Open Office on my computer so I can see MS type files too.

I'm pretty sure you are going to have to open those files in Lotus WordPro, and then save them as a MS Word file, or some such compatible import for Open Office, as Open Office does not support opening or importing WordPro files directly.
WordPro used to be my favorite, back in the late eighties.
Is there Lotus Word Pro for my macbook air? I have not been able to find it on line.
Not that I know of.
I'm pretty certain that development of this product waned to near nothing even before Intel Macs arrived.
So how can I open the files in Lotus if there is no Lotus?
1) This is one occasion where a PC with Windows, or a Mac running Windows may just be required.
2) Buy Lotus Smartsuite, or Lotus Word Pro on that popular online auction site whose name rhymes with "horsehay". (the last time I mentioned their name directly, my post was deleted.)
I checked the auction site, and there are many people selling SmartSuite.
How can I view lotus LWP files on macBook Air?
