Evil Appleworks keeps crashing

I was trying to convert my appleworks 6 document into a word or plain text document and the colored pinwheel of no return keeps popping up and appleworks unexpectedly quits.
now ANY time I try to open ANY appleworks document appleworks quits.

there should be in ~/Library/Preferences a com.apple.appleworks.plist file or something like that... trash it, repair your disk permissions from Disk Utility and relaunch Appleworks..

also find your resent starting points folder and delete all the shortcuts in there too. also if a font gets corrupt, it won't let appleworks open. and appleworks is picky about fonts.
