I have the same problem. The only way I have found to open a wpd
document is to save it to my desktop, go to Virtual PC where I have
Word Perfect installed and open it there. It's a lot of hassle and
expense to have Virtual and Perfect. We should all get together and
write Microsoft to add a Word Perfect opener to MS Office for Mac. If
memory serves me, you used to be able to open any word processing
document in MS Word.

I thought one of the selling points of the Mac was that it can get
along in the Windows world and open docs created in Windows. But
someone just e-mailed me a file with the suffix .wpd on it, and when
I try to open it the Mac keeps asking what application I'd like to
use with it. Every text or word processing app I've got says it
can't. Anybody know how I can get a .wpd file to open?
I've had a few .wmv files sent too, and can't open them (B&W Rev A,
OS9.2).
