Corel Wordperfect to MS Word

[WorlWydeHusla]

I was wondering if there was a way convert a bunch of my Wordperfect documents to be compatible with Microsoft documents? Help would be GREATLY appreciated as I have a bunch of old Wordperfect files I have and I need them in Word format :D

Thanks in advance for your time ;)

can't you just open the file through notepad and save it as a .doc file? I mean, aside from some misclaneous code it should be pretty apparent what parts to copy&past and which parts not to.

^Not sure, comrade. I think the lay out will be scrambled when you do that...
I'm sure there must be some kind of a convertor for that :)

In WordPerfect, go to File:Save As (or F3), then at the bottom left of the pop-up window, there is a "File Type" drop down menu; scroll to whatever Word version you have & then click save. Hope this helps. Lkb

Well in the .asw format (abi-word), there are some statement operators, then, in quotes, the document you typed, and then end quotes and ending operators. It's simple enough, and it should be close to the same because, just as .asw is, WordPerfect's files are multi-OS (linux and Winbloze)
