The original poster already told us this : " I can open a wpd document and save it" > Micro$oft (doc), Wordperfect or Corel (wpd) can't read or save in > OpenOffice.org's native format, odt How is what you said different than what I advised? "Short answer is you can't. MS currently does not support the native OOo file format (ODF)." The only difference is that I used the file format name (OASIS Open Document Format for Office Applications) instead of the file name extension. > For the moment at least, they are defective because they cannot read Open > Document formats like OOo's. > To be able to use files made with OOo, you will have to save them in a > format that M$ Word or Corel Wordperfect can read (doc, wpd, rtf, txt) Again - from your response, how was mine 'messing things up'? "You'll have to convert the .wpd file into something else (eg, RTF, .doc) for it to be imported into OOo." /paul Paul
I didn't know wpd stood for Microsoft... Maybe I'd better not bother answering any more questions on the list and mind my own business. -- Guy using dutch OOo 2.1 RC 2 on a iMac Intel DualCore Tiger and dutch OOo 2.1 RC 1 on a G4 PPC Powerbook Tiger -- please reply only to [email protected] -- Dodoes can't afford to have headaches
