Wordperfect can not read my Word Documents

Post by Al » Mon, 17 May 1999 04:00:00



Wordperfect can not read my word documents.

I get the following error message
Filtrix is unable to convert this document, because it is
not the type specified.  If the documnet  was fast-saved,
it will need to be full-saved before Filtrix can convert it.

When I do a od -s on the document it tells me it is a word 6 document.
That is what what I am trying to load it as.  I also tried to load it as
Word 97.

Thanks

Al

Errr. This may sound silly....

But why not save the file as a wordperfect 6/7/8 file in WORD?
Wordperfect should have no trouble handling THAT! Should it?
