After looking for any hint of an appleworks file I discovered a folder in /user/preferences/appleworks which has four files. Three of them are dated Jan 17, 2006 and one is dated Jun 15, 2004, so these are not files that were open and got corrupted today.
BUT
when I trashed this preferences folder, things started to work again. So AW is now running. The solution this time was deleting the folder:
/user/preferences/appleworks
I tried the repair script, but it tried to open Appleworks. It seems to be a script to fix Appleworks when it won't open, but it requires Appleworks to run. Maybe I'm missing something.
Thanks to all who provided suggestions!
I DO love this forum!
