Office 2007 breaks Works

I can honestly say that I've seen this one firsthand. My laptop has Works 8.5 on it, simply because I never bothered to uninstall if when I installed Office 2003. Occasioanlly I get a .wps file at work that I need the Office converters to open and that are broken in our standard install of Word at work because of macros or something. Usually I just double-click the file and save as a .doc, not caring whether it opens in Works or Word. Today, I double-clicked it and got the DLL error. I could easily open it from within Word, so I don't really care, but if you're dependant on Works, you should definitely keep this in mind and maybe not install the beta on the same machine.

Or, give the fixes a try and let us know if they work.
