Medlin Accounting's Payroll Software is an accounting and payroll application for Microsoft Windows. The .mws format stores statement layout information used by the program when preparing statements.
This is an application-specific support file rather than a general document or data-exchange format. Its contents are intended to be used by Payroll Software, and the format's use depends on that program.
Open the file with Medlin Accounting Payroll Software on Microsoft Windows. In normal use, Payroll Software reads the .mws file when it needs the saved statement layout; it is not intended to be opened as a regular document in a text editor or office application.
There is no known standalone conversion method for the Medlin Payroll Software statement layout format. If the layout is needed in another form, use the statement printing or export options provided by Payroll Software, or recreate the layout in the target application.
